Elmworth is a farming community approximately 65 kilometres south west of Grande Prairie. Elmworth School operated by the Peace Wapiti School Division provides instruction for about 70 students from K to 12. We run a compressed school week resulting in an organization base of nine school days per two week block rather than the five school days per one week block.

The school also offers special programs that include speech pathology services, counselling, early literacy intervention, and a complete swimming program for the elementary students. Students also participate in extra curricular events that include: sports(volleyball, basketball, badminton, track); elementary and junior high intramurals,student's union, and many cultural events. There is an outdoor skating rink and a neighbouring curling rink that the students are able to use. 

An active parent group was responsible for many long hours and hard work which resulted in a new playground facility for all to enjoy. Many parents attend and become involved with the School Council.
