Rivercrest Catholic School is one of 20 elementary and two secondary
schools that operate under the direction of the Renfrew County Catholic District School Board. Together, the Catholic schools of Renfrew County comprise communities of faith and centers of academic excellence for more than 6,000 students.
Administrative, teaching and support staff at Rivercrest are active participants in the distinct character of Petawawa and the area community. At the same time, we share common beliefs with other Catholic schools throughout Renfrew County.
We Value:
Quality academic and social learning environments in a moral and ethical framework, through the guidance and teaching of the Good News of Jesus Christ;
A welcoming church, school and home environment that celebrates partnerships in education and recognizes parents and guardians as our students' first teachers;
A philosophy of caring that directs all teaching towards nurturing individual skills and abilities based on each student's best potential;
In addition to our full range of academic curriculum, special-education
support services at Rivercrest ensure unique students' needs are met. Our school council encourages parent, teacher, clergy and community involvement in planning future directions for our school. Our religious education and family life programs develop a positive attitude toward life and learning, based on the teachings of the Gospel of Christ.
Rivercrest is truly a school both you and your children can believe in!
Sincerely,
H. Bruce Munro, Principal
