Canadian Mental Health Week: May 5–11, 2025

Canadian Mental Health Week is an opportunity to raise awareness and inspire meaningful change. This year’s theme, “Unmasking Mental Health,” encourages us to look beyond appearances and recognize the full person behind the struggles. Many people living with mental health challenges feel the need to hide their experiences due to stigma—let’s work together to create a more understanding and supportive community.

Red Dress Day 2025 – Honouring Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People

May 5 is Red Dress Day, a National Day of Awareness and Action honouring Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirited People (MMIWG2S+). Originating from the REDress Project by Métis artist Jaime Black, this day is marked by red dresses displayed in public spaces and worn in solidarity. We invite our Sea to Sky community to reflect, remember, and stand in allyship.

May is Child Care Appreciation Month!

May is Child Care Month! Sea to Sky School District acknowledges and celebrates the incredibly valuable work of all early childhood educators and responsible adults working across the school district. We are lucky to have school district and community-based professionals facilitating early learning programming in Infant and Toddler programs, Preschool-aged programs, StrongStart, Seamless Day, and Out of School Care programs on school grounds. We know that these educators provide safe, nurturing environments that foster a sense of belonging and support the development of social and emotional skills that are foundational in a child’s life. The patience and care that these educated professionals provide to children and their families is recognized and appreciated this month and every month throughout the year!

Please join us in acknowledging and celebrating the work of our child care staff and the positive impacts they have on children, families, schools, and our community!

Principal's Message

Welcome to Valleycliffe Elementary School!

We are honoured to be learning on the unceded traditional territory of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Nation. We have a beautiful little school in the Valleycliffe community of Squamish, BC.

Together our staff, students and families work together to create a safe, kind, and caring school culture. Our focus is on creating a sense of belonging while building, maintaining, and strengthening connections each day. We create authentic tasks that help our students learn competency-based skills that help them grow as a learner.

We hope you enjoy our school and community!
