- We acknowledge the right of all students to an education consistent with their needs.
- We value our competent, enthusiastic staff and promote the use of effective practices and resources.
- We provide a safe, nurturing environment based on mutual respect.

Western School Division (WSD) is small and compact in comparison to others in Canada, but uses this to an advantage by being more flexible in meeting students’ needs and can respond quickly to issues and opportunities. WSD is efficient in its operation and is able to equip schools more substantially than most. The schools are technologically advanced and are connected to each other and to the Internet through a Wide Area Network.
WSD is proud of its record of progressive program development and is acknowledged by neighbouring divisions and Manitoba Education and Training as being in the forefront of educational excellence.

Campus Manitoba
Campus Manitoba (CMB) is a program designed to facilitate access for Morden and regional residents to post-secondary education within the province of Manitoba. CMB may provide first year education for most faculties in Manitoba Universities. Students may choose to study full-time or part-time.
Some courses require attendance in online classes at the CMB Centre. Tuition and textbook costs are similar to on campus, but students save the cost of relocating to Winnipeg or Brandon. Distance courses from Red River College are available.
