Seven Oaks School Division, Public education system in northwest Winnipeg, Canada
Seven Oaks School Division is a public school system in northwest Winnipeg, running elementary schools, high schools, and specialized programs spread across several neighborhoods. The schools serve students of all ages, from young children through to teenagers preparing for graduation.
The division was formed in 1959 when the West Kildonan School District merged with three neighboring districts to create Consolidated School District No. 2375. The merger was a response to rapid population growth in the area following the postwar years.
The school division offers instruction in multiple languages including French immersion, Punjabi, Filipino, and Ojibway bilingual programs. These language options reflect the diverse communities that the schools serve.
The division's main office is in northwest Winnipeg and is the starting point for families looking to enroll or learn about available schools and programs. Some programs have limited spots, so it is worth reaching out early in the school year planning process.
The Met Schools within the division let students spend part of their school time doing internships with local businesses and organizations rather than sitting in a classroom. This approach means that a teenager might spend a morning working at a bakery or a community center as part of their regular school week.
