SFX is very supportive of its staff. We provide many professional development opportunities and enormous support to ensure that our staff achieve success in their practice and enjoy working in our school.
In addition to the curriculum stipulated by the British Columbia Ministry of Education, we have a unique component in our program – Chinese as a subject.
