Every Child Deserves the Right Support

Front of Kiizhik School on Valley Drive Kenora

Gaagagekiizhik Elementary School and Bimose Community High School welcome students from all backgrounds and learning journeys. To help every student succeed, we encourage families of children who may require additional learning, behavioural, or educational supports to connect with our Admissions Office before applying.

Meeting with our team allows us to learn more about your child’s needs, discuss the supports we currently offer, and ensure our school is the right fit for your family. Our goal is to make sure every student has the resources and support they need to thrive.

To schedule a meeting or ask questions, please contact Kristen Boucha, Admissions Office, by phone or email. We’d be happy to arrange a visit and show you around our school.
