Literacy for Success

At Eastdale Collegiate, we are committed to ensuring that every student develops strong literacy skills that will support them in academics, the workplace, and daily life. Using a Science of Reading approach, we focus on evidence-based strategies that build essential reading, writing, and critical thinking skills. Literacy is woven into all subjects, ensuring students develop the confidence to interpret and communicate information effectively. With small class sizes and caring teacher support, we provide a nurturing environment where every student can achieve success, whether they are on a pathway to college or the workforce.

Our literacy goals support equity, achievement, and student well-being. We offer practical, workplace-focused courses that equip students with real-world literacy skills, preparing them for employment. Our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation ensures that Indigenous perspectives are embedded in literacy education, fostering a deeper understanding of diverse histories and cultures.
