Welcome to Cardinal Léger Junior High School!
There is an African proverb which says, “It takes a village to raise a
child”. Here at Cardinal Léger School, we believe much the same, that is,
that it takes a collaborative partnership between the home, school and the
extended community to educate a child to become a productive and responsible
member of their community. Our logo, motto, mission statement and shared
values represent our Catholic philosophy, values and orientation of the
school.
We are a Catholic and student-centered community which works collaboratively
to ensure high standards of academics and discipline. We offer both a
comprehensive academic core program and a variety of complementary programs
designed to meet the academic, spiritual, social and physical needs of our
students.
As a 21st Century Learning School, we concentrate on building academic
achievement and global citizenship by fostering an environment where student
engagement in the areas of Digital-Age Literacy, Critical and Inventive
Thinking, Effective Communication and High Productivity are fostered within a
Christ-Centered environment. We recognize and celebrate that the rich and
varied opportunities we offer our students provides the ground work and
foundation necessary to ensure our students develop into responsible,
productive members of their community; ready to face the challenges of the 21st
century.
Cardinal Léger Junior High School is located within the Dickensfield Community
of North Central Edmonton, Alberta. We serve many families from within
the North central, east and west quadrants of the city. As the District
focus site for both, the Pre-Advanced Placement Program and the Italian
Language and Culture Program, we serve a number of communities and families
from within Wards 1 and 2.
We offer students a variety of programs, both academic and co-curricular
programs geared towards serving the diverse needs of our students. Our
consistent performance and tradition of excellent provincial test results
demonstrates our school’s focus on academic studies. Please refer to the
listings below as an indication of the diverse program offerings here at
Cardinal Léger Junior High School.
At Cardinal Léger Junior High School, we work to maintain close
