Cedar Creek Public School opened in September 1999 and is located in the village of Ayr, Ontario. We are a Kindergarten to Grade 8 school that prides itself in academic excellence and creating a community that fosters growth mindset and a collaborative, inclusive space for all. The school consists of a main office, library, gym and multi-purpose rooms, 24 classrooms, 4 portables, an instrumental music room and a special education resource room. The site also hosts the YMCA childcare and the EarlyON program. The school is situated on a ten-acre site next to Schmidt Park. These Outdoor facilities include numerous soccer fields, two baseball diamonds, one outdoor basketball court, two creative playground structures and various blacktop games. We offer French Immersion classes to students from Grade 2 – 6 as well as Core French to all students in Grades 1 to 8. Our school mascot is the Cedar Creek Coyote!
About Our Staff

About Core Values
At Cedar Creek we know our words and actions matter. We have collaboratively identified with our caregiver community, staff and students what our core values are and strive to demonstrate them each and every day. Please see our student created posters below. Staff nominate students each month who are demonstrating these characteristics for the “Whylie Winner” Board.
