A challenging program of science and technology is offered at Silver Springs Public School. Students who are encouraged to push the envelope as they discover a new and exciting world. As part of their science and technology program, our intermediate students recieve a specialized design and technology program that challenges them to solve problems through a comprehensive design process. In a team setting, each student's strengths contribute to the overall success of the project. Students learn new skills as they grow in a collaborative environment.
Mental Health: Silver Springs Public School is in partnership with the Daphne Cockwell School of Nursing at Ryerson University. This partnership gives the school an opportunity to have a student nurse, Zubaida Mohamed, twice per week starting January until April. Ms Mohamed will work with school staff to enhance the health and well-being of the students. Social and emotional health of students has been identified as an area of focus. As a result, the school has applied for the Student Support and Leadership Initiative grant, which is a funding opportunity that assists schools to promote and enhance the mental health of students. Silver Springs will work in collaboration with East Youth Metro Services and ACSA on this initiative.
