Story

Chute Lake Elementary is located in Kettle Valley in the Upper Mission. It opened in September 2009 and a two classroom modular addition, complete with washroom facilities, was added in September, 2011.

The school was built to high, environmentally sustainable standards achieving an unofficial LEED* (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design-International Rating System) silver rating. Landscaping includes indigenous, drought-resistant vegetation and native, low-mow grass mixes which will reduce irrigation. CLE school grounds connect onto Curlew Park which provides a vast expanse of green space to be utilized by staff and students for special field events.

Enrollment in September 2016 was at maximum school capacity (492) and students are organized for instruction in 19 divisions (K-6).
