About Our School
Located in the Sandy Hill community, Viscount Alexander Public School opened its doors in 1951. Our unique location in Sandy Hill has allowed us to build strong relationships with many partners in the community including uOttawa Athletics, uOttawa Faculty of Education, Sandy Hill Community Health Centre, Sandy Hill Community Centre, Action Sandy Hill, and MASC (Multicultural Arts for Schools and Communities). These partnerships have enriched our school in many ways.
At Viscount children come first and their individual needs are our priority. We extend caring, collaboration and commitment to every student, their parents, and the community. Working together as a positive, optimistic family, we focus on preparing our students academically, socially and physically for an ever-changing and demanding society.
The staff of Viscount Alexander Public School would like to extend a warm welcome to our families both old and new. We look forward to working with you, our parents and community, through parent conferences, the volunteer program, school council, and special events. Together we can all strive to make Viscount Alexander a safe and caring school in which our students feel included and challenged as they take part in the exciting voyage of discovery and learning.
