Every student in The École belongs to a House that corresponds with one of the four colors of our school polos and T-shirts—red, white, yellow, or blue. Newly enrolled students are allocated a House color that maintains the student numbers per House even across the entire school while ensuring that siblings belong to the same House.
Each student should have at least one polo and/or T-shirt in their House color to wear for House events. Once children reach Elementary, the House system allows them to build vertical connections and relationships with students in other grades, which reinforces their sense of belonging to a close-knit community. Every September, students from 1st to 8th Grade vote for their House captain from among the 8th Grade candidates for the position.
