At Bear Creek, we believe that our school must serve and respect students, staff, parents and community, who are all integral elements of the culture of the school. Pride and progress, in individuals, teams, programs, and achievements will be hallmarks of Bear Creek. We will provide a bright, clean, safe, and welcoming environment in which to learn and grow, and we will promote an atmosphere of teamwork, tolerance, and cooperation. Our students will be provided with the opportunity to learn, succeed, and excel, in all areas of school life. They will have access to a challenging and varied curriculum, sharply focused on literacy and numeracy, in addition to a diverse range of co-curricular programs. They will be expected to demonstrate respect for community, family, staff, peers, and themselves.
The Holly community is located in Barrie's extreme southwest. Originally part of Innisfil, Holly was one of three areas annexed in the 1980s, pushing Barrie’s boundary to the south. It is a well-established community, with mainly detached homes, a number of schools, park areas, and some commercial services. The recreation centre is a must-go destination for families. The Dyer tract of the Simcoe County Forest lies beyond the northwest border, and beautiful rolling fields lie to the south and west.
