St. Albert of Jerusalem School is an elementary school located in the geographic area of Mississauga North, servicing the area north of Derry Road and west of Winston Churchill Boulevard. The student population, approximately 920 students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 8, comes from a wide range of social and ethnic backgrounds reflecting the ever-increasing diversity of cultures found within Mississauga. Our school is equipped with a Library equipped with a full computer lab, a Primary gym and a large Junior/Intermediate gym, a stage, and a beautiful forum area in the centre of the school. Over the past year, through the fundraising efforts of our School Council, we have enhanced our school grounds in order that our students have access to a variety of activities during their recesses. These include painted game lines on the paved area, fun hoops, basketball nets and a beautiful peace garden where the students can sit and talk, read or play quiet games.

St. Albert of Jerusalem was established to support Catholic parents in their responsibility for the spiritual, religious, moral, academic and physical needs of their children in accordance with the teachings of the Church. The school community at St. Albert is committed to the search for excellence, the uniqueness of the individual and the education of the whole person.

We are a caring community that stresses tolerance and acceptance of others, commitment to our Catholic faith and high academic standards. We provide a safe and comfortable learning environment where models of Gospel values and Catholic doctrines, teachings and beliefs are an integral part of the daily life of our school. The school motto, "Upon our foundation, we continue to build the Spirit", was chosen through the process of community consultation and reflects a holistic philosophy where religion and daily life are intertwined. All activities at St. Albert of Jerusalem School - academic and pastoral work, extracurricular and intramural, prayer and worship, administration and management - help to prepare our students for their lives as Catholics in the community.

Our students come to us with a variety of strengths and needs, with their Catholic faith as their common bond. Our prayer life, liturgical celebrations, the sacraments, and our faith and values system form the foundation of our school program. We are proud of our balanced religion, academic, arts, technology and athletic programs. We offer students a well-rounded and value-centered education to help them make good choices for the future. The curriculum planned and provided in the school is broad, balanced and relevant to the needs and aspirations of all our students. A wide range of subjects and learning experiences are offered to develop the skills, abilities and talents of individual students. Accordingly, appropriate assessment procedures are employed regularly to motivate and encourage student success. To ensure coherence and wholeness, subjects are taught against the background of The Ontario Curriculum, the Gospel values of Jesus Christ and sound educational practices.
