House System / The Four Houses

The Four Houses

Students are sorted into one of four Houses, which they will remain a member of throughout their time at Francis Parker School No. 23. Each House has unique properties such as its own color, symbols, nation of heritage, history, and more, which helps each House bond over a common identity and purpose. All students receive a T-shirt in their House color, with their House name on it, which they wear on House Days.
