Winnipeg School Division, Educational institution in Winnipeg, Canada
Winnipeg School Division is the public school system of the city of Winnipeg in the province of Manitoba, Canada, operating schools across all neighborhoods. It covers all levels from early childhood education through the final year of high school.
The school system was founded in 1877, making it one of the oldest in Manitoba. Over the decades it grew alongside the city, opening new schools and adapting its programs to serve new communities.
The schools offer French-language classes and Indigenous education programs that reflect the backgrounds of many students. Visitors to school buildings often notice artwork and signage that make the local mix of languages and traditions visible.
Information about registration, school programs, and the school calendar is available through the division's official website. Families new to Winnipeg will find guidance there on how to enroll and which schools are available in their area.
Some school buildings in the system are over 100 years old and still in daily use. These older buildings are easy to spot by their brick construction and tend to sit at the heart of established residential neighborhoods.
