Welcome to Mauricie English Elementary School! We are a vibrant English Elementary school located smack dab in the middle of Trois-Rivières, a predominately francophone city situated along the St. Lawrence seaway between Québec and Montréal. We are the third largest city in this belle province of Québec.
At MEES, you will meet staff, students and parents that carry a great pride and sense of belonging. Although historically we were known as Three Rivers High School, we officially became an elementary school in 2004. Since this time, we continue to work collaboratively in developing our character and reputation as an outstanding school where the staff are dedicated to providing a caring environment where diversity is embraced and student success is a priority.
Throughout our website you will see pictures of many smiling faces participating in a variety of events. Our skilled and devoted teaching staff work together to design innovate lesson plans, with differentiated instruction and evaluation as needed to ensure learning for all. We are fortunate to have a wonderful school facility that is fully equipped with the latest technology. Our educators are life-long learners who keep abreast with the newest trends and research in Education today.
At MEES we know that learning does not only happen in the classroom. If you are fortunate enough to step onto our playground, you will find two surprisingly large playgrounds. The small yard is located on the south side of the school that houses our Early Childhood center and Daycare. This playground is dedicated to our youngest students and provides an opportunity for socialization before they “graduate” onto the larger playground. We have a paved area with freshly painted games and of course 2 hockey courts for all seasons, a basketball court, 2 large soccer fields, a baseball field as well as two more modules surrounded by sand to play in. From experience, we know that engaging students in activities they enjoy reduces the frequency of conflicts and increases the safety of our school yard.
Outside of class time, our dynamic and loving team of daycare educators have a panoply of games and activities to captivate and engage our students. Through team play, leadership opportunities, theatre, and dance our students often unveil hidden talents that we are able to showcase to our school community in our Spring Talent Show.
Please feel free to surf our website to find more about our amazing school. If you are in the area and would like to learn more, please do make it a point to come in and visit us.
Sincerely,
Elana MacDougall
School Principal
