About Us

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board is the largest school board in Eastern Ontario and offers students and parents a world of choice for learning. Our nearly 150 schools offer a wide range of programs to promote learning excellence and meet the individual needs of students, parents, and the community at large. Our schools are teaching communities where principals, vice-principals, teachers and support staff nurture student well-being and challenge students to achieve their best. We are seeking creative, dynamic, and committed teachers to join our team at Centennial Public School.

Centennial PS is located at the southwest edge of Ottawa's downtown district. Its diversity; cultures, languages, staff and student body is what makes this school both special and unique.

At Centennial the well-being of our students within our school community and clear sense of belonging provide the foundation of academic excellence for our students.

We are a small but mighty school with a population typically over 200 students. We support the English streams K-6, Middle French 4-6 and are fortunate to have both the Primary Learning Language Disability Program (grades 1-3), and two Physical Support Program classes that support grades 1-

• Our families speak over 18 different languages at home and our school provides support to many English as a Second Language families.
