West Vine Street School

Elementary School of the Year 2023

Welcome

Welcome from the Principal

Welcome to West Vine Street!

West Vine is a Kindergarten through Grade 5 Elementary School, and we house close to 340 wonderful students. Upon entering the school, you will notice that not only is it a physically beautiful school, but it possesses a warmth and welcoming atmosphere that all elementary schools should have. 

This year, we are thrilled to introduce our school-wide theme: “Unleash Your Inner Hero.” We will be focusing on helping students recognize the strengths and unique qualities they each bring to our school community. Whether it's through academics, friendship, or emotional regulation, every child has a superpower waiting to shine!

West Vine is a special place, and we are proud of our vibrant and diverse community. Obviously, I am biased in this view. Therefore, do not just take my word for it. If you are new to the area, please call and schedule a time to visit and have a tour of the school.

Thank you very much. 

Sincerely,

Signature showing a D and other letters

Damian Reardon
