Adrienne Clarkson Elementary School (ACES) was officially opened by Her Excellency the Right Honourable Adrienne Clarkson in 2001. The school is positioned on a large property adjacent to Stonecrest Park. ACES is a triple track school which offers Regular English, Early French Immersion and Middle French Immersion Programs.
At ACES, we take pride in providing a positive learning environment for our students and strive to develop a sense of community amongst our multi-cultural student body. Our school traditions, and safe and caring culture contribute to a strong sense of belonging. Through a co-operative arrangement with the City, students enjoy access to soccer pitches, baseball diamonds, play structures and a community rink. Children’s Village at Stoneway operates an extended day program within the school.
The school has a large double gym and stage, a library with a collection of over 10,000 French and English books, two computer labs, digital technology peripherals and wireless internet.
The main building is fully accessible and has an elevator to access the second floor. Children’s Village has dedicated space for programming and with the expansion of the extended day program now also shares classroom and gym spaces.
Our outdoor space is separated into two fully fenced yards with:
- a play structure dedicated for the use of kindergarten children.
- a large play structure, a basketball court and a large field are available to grade 1-6 students.
