In Mossbank, parents raise their families safe from the crime and violence that plagues larger centres. Children attending Mossbank School benefit from small class sizes that allow for plenty of individual attention. At the same time, students have access to the same state-of-the-art facilities available in big schools. Population projections done by the Prairie South School Division indicate that the Mossbank School is sustainable, so, school closure is not an issue, but the small school population means that every student will have the chance to join the teams and activities he or she is interested in.
