Principal's Message
Welcome to Isabelle Sellon School; a part of the Livingstone Range School Division. Our school proudly serves students and their families from the five communities that make up the Municipality of the Crowsnest Pass. Originally built as a High School in 1960, ISS is named for Miss Isabelle Sellon, a longtime educator in the Crowsnest Pass area. Over the years, ISS has undergone several renovations and has provided sound educational experiences for a variety of grade levels. Since September 2003, our student body has been comprised of students in Grades 4, 5 & 6.
At Isabelle Sellon School our staff is motivated to provide meaningful, engaging and positive learning experiences for each of our students. We are a partner school with the Teton Science Network of Schools to build place based instructional practices and authentic learning opportunties across all aspects of curriculum. Our school is also a Leader in Me School which teaches students how to manage priorities, goal setting, and to be a positive influence on the world around them. We believe that the stronger the relationship between our school and our community, the better prepared our students will be for their future.
Should you have any questions or concerns regarding Isabelle Sellon School, please call the school at 403–562-8816 for more information.
