Welcome Back with the Strait Regional Centre for Education logo at the top left

We would like to extend a warm welcome to students, families and staff to Dalbrae Academy for the 2025-2026 school year.

We hope everyone has had a chance to relax and spend time with family and friends over the summer months. We are preparing for a great school year, and we are all looking forward to greeting students on Thursday, September 4, 2025.

At Dalbrae Academy, we are committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and culturally responsive environment where every student feels valued and empowered to reach their full potential. By fostering accountability, responsibility, and resilience, we prepare lifelong learners and compassionate leaders ready to succeed in an ever-changing world.

The diversity and quality of curricular, co-curricular and extra-curricular programs offered at Dalbrae Academy certainly provide students with wonderful learning opportunities. Our compliment of traditional courses with the addition of programs such as the Options and Opportunities (O2), Skilled Trades, and Cooperative Education courses provide students with a wide selection of choices for them to explore special interests and help them focus in making decisions on directions for post-secondary study and future employment options.

We are proud of the continued success enjoyed by our fine arts groups, athletic teams and special interest clubs and organizations, and we encourage all students to take an active role in them. Our exceptional facilities, include a full track and soccer field; double gymnasium; and 500-seat theatre (Strathspey Performing Arts Centre), all of which help make these extra-curricular activities possible for students.

We wish everyone a safe and successful school year.

Welcome to Dalbrae!
