Glashan Public School

- Supportive and dedicated teachers with many clubs and teams makes this school a great place to be a part of.

i have one problem with this school and its most of the teachers. teachers should be under standing and care about there students and help them when they need help but at this school almost never have i seen that happen the best they will do is tell you to get better and then not help you at all

My name is not John Smith but it is Denis Bellefeuille a graduate in 1975 from Glashan Jr High. It has been 44 years since I graduated and I wanted to express my appreciation for this school as a mentor to the individual I became. After Glashan I attended several high schools in Ottawa before joining the Canadian Forces where I served for 22 years. After retiring from the Canadian Forces I later became a Section Manager at Bruce Power with the world top Response Force. As I look back I owe a lot of credit to this fine school and their staff for educating, mentoring and supporting me. Three of the teachers that I admire was Mr. Alf (Art), JC Kruse (History) and Mr Descloud (Gym). These individuals were the one I remembered from all my education years. Later in life I finished my high school diploma and attended college however I remembered the lessons that was instill in me from Glashan Junior High. I cannot thank you enough for the fine establishment, educators, mentors, leaders and supporters you are to all young minds. Highest Respect, Denis

Ya know, I've seen a lot of reviews on here sucking off the faculty, well here I am, more than prepared to give them my worse. The, soon to be, retired principal Mr. Taylor was a bit of an egomaniac. In fact, he would talk constantly, at least at the beginning of my grade 7 year, about his grandfather who fought in WWII and his son, who was in the Olympics. Don't get me wrong, both of those are pretty cool, but he seemed to feel obsolete due to their accomplishments, and he would persist constantly and consistently, that he has the most important job in the world. He would always talk about "deep learning," and the international trips, which only a baker's dozen of people would get to go on (the plus one of the baker's dozen being Taylor himself). The students would have to compete, and prove that they were what the 6C's encompassed -- Creativity, Citizenship, Collaboration, Communication, Critical thinking, Character education. Moving on, last year, I had Ms. Victor for my English class. She was fine, if not strict at times, but she thought the moon wasn't solid; that's enough for me. Additionally, she marked down one of my friends for stealing an ad for our media unit, which I SAW HIM MAKE; she allegedly whined that she had seen it somewhere before, and I believe he even showed her the project's files. Finally, we have Mr. LeSage. I'm glad he's retired, since now no one else has to deal with him. He would be super annoying with his lame jokes, and he would play "mind-expanding music," which was really just 70's/80's pop/rock. He would play it loud, and it would be a nuisance as you tried to work. He failed to send ANY students to write the GOSS test, he insisted that he had, and I stepped up, but Mr. Hunter, who just sorta floats around, helping students who need tutoring, says, "We need REALLY smart kids to write the GOSS math test." I was livid, though hadn't expressed it, and I even had other people vouching for me, and LeSage did NOTHING to debate him. I hope Hunter sees this, so that he knows that I'm getting 90s in math now. The only thing I liked about this school is the friends I made, and most of them went to another school next year, anyways.

Good school, most staff are great. my problem is that Mr Erlik really only likes the sporty kids who are on teams. another thing is that the bathrooms are really nasty, even for a middle school. there is never any paper to dry your hands, and the hand dryers are so nasty i don't want to use them.

Made me depressed dont go here Useless staff ? Terrible teaching ?

How can I forget Glashan my public school. While at Glashan I participated in sports. Physical education, this helped me be a part of "Glashan Spikers." Back then Mr. Desclouds was my gym teacher. We ended up being the Ottawa City Champions. What a wonderful experience. Glashan has wonderful activities. If there are any activities, get involved, you never know where you're talents could take you. But most importantly keep your grades up. Be kind to your teachers. Be kind to your friends. Be a friend to someone. Be kind to one another. This is very important, you may see this as you move through life. Listen to your parents, love them because they love you very much. Go Glashan Go!???????❤

I attended Glashan School from 1952 - 1953, 'graduating' from Grade 8 before our family moved to Winnipeg. Regretfully I don't remember my teacher's names but I recall especially enjoying the art class; whoever my teachers were, I would wish to thank them all.
