About Us

WELCOME FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Dear Joseph Welsh Families,

My name is Kevin Robertson and I am honoured to be the Principal at Joseph Welsh Elementary. I am excited to welcome all of our students and families to Joseph Welsh and look forward to the school year! I would like to extend a special welcome to all of the new families coming to our school this year and welcome back all of our returning families as well! It is our goal to work in partnership with our parents and guardians. These relationships set the foundation for success. Our school mantra is building connections in all we do, and it is our goal that every staff member, student, and family feels a part of this amazing school community.

Our entire staff is excited about the opportunities that this coming year will bring as we strive for success for every child. To this end, our school and staff will endeavor to provide support and the very best learning opportunities for every child. Student success and growth is our priority. This coming year, we will implement a comprehensive intervention program to address learning gaps in literacy and numeracy of our students, as it is needed.

There are many ways to stay connected to our school:

Please visit the Joseph Welsh School website, that has a tremendous amount of valuable information. We encourage you to check the website often for news and updates. Website link: https://www.rdpsd.ab.ca/josephwelsh
We will use School Messenger to send important information to our families.

We are so excited for the start of this year more than ever, and we are dedicated to providing your child(ren) the best learning experience possible. It’s going to be a great year!

Regards,

Mr. Kevin Robertson

Principal, Joseph Welsh Elementary
