Sir John A. Macdonald School, located in the west end of Belleville, serves approximately 300 students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 8.

Sir John A. Macdonald is a single storey accessible school with a spacious playground, and adjoining parks. The school is proud of its 50 year history of education excellence. The focus is on literacy and numeracy. Our school joins with HPEDSB's “Growing with Character” as we strive to show the eight character traits through the lens of Social Justice.

Each month we celebrate learning through a Celebration Assembly which showcases all aspects of school curriculum and extra curricular activities. Our school newsletter communicates to our community each month highlighting student work and learning.

The school provides a vibrant program for English Language Learners. Building an inclusive school community is a priority for all who attend and work at Sir John A. Macdonald.
