About Our School

Welcome to Amherst Island Public School where we are small in number but large in spirit! We are a Kindergarten to Grade 8 school located on picturesque Amherst Island, once named one of the prettiest towns in Canada. Our school is within the local hamlet of Stella on the protected north central shore. A regular ferry service connects us to the mainland at Millhaven. Our school yard is spacious and open and includes a skating rink in the winter.
