Labrador Straits Academy actively encourages the participation of parents, teachers, students, and the community whereby every student has equal opportunity to reach his / her fullest potential in an environment conducive to learning and growth.
The vision of Labrador Straits Academy is to foster independence, creative & constructive thinking, to best prepare them to become active, positive, and contributing members of society.
We believe and value: the contributions that all students make; the results of learning; the process and the end results that teaching provides; and the social, emotional, academic and physical environments in which learning occurs.
