Lord Tennyson is a feeder school for the nearby Kitsilano Secondary School, where graduates can continue their education in French Immersion.

Nootka Elementary School

Nootka Elementary School opened in 1959 as Lord Beaconsfield Annex, but a growing student population led to school status being granted in 1963.[8][9] It is located at 3375 Nootka Street, near Renfrew Street. As of 2016, the current school principal is Monika Sanft and the Vice-principal is Megan Davies.[10]

It is located at 1300 East Broadway, at the intersection with Clark Drive.[11] It is near Vancouver Community College's Broadway campus, and is easily accessible from VCC–Clark station and Commercial–Broadway station on the SkyTrain. {{As of|2018}}, the current school principal is John MacCormack. TransLink BC has 3 routes servicing the school. The 9, the 22, and the 99 B-Line. The school has a population of 180 students from Grades K to 7. The school has been on the chopping block twice. The first time being in 2010 due to low enrolment levels. The second time being in late 2015-2016 due to the VSBs funding shortfall.

Queen Mary Elementary School opened in 1915. It is located at 2000 Trimble Street, at the intersection with 4th Avenue in the West Point Grey neighbourhood. As of 2017, the current school principal is Hugh Blackman. The school has a population of about 450 students from grade K-7.

Xpey' Elementary School

Xpey' Elementary opened in 1906 as Sir William Macdonald Elementary School in honor of the Canadian tobacco manufacturer and major education philanthropist. Macdonald was unofficially rechristened "Xpey'" on October 24, 2017, following a 2-year VSB-initiative to rename the School to better reflect "the Indigenous heritage and education history of the area' as well as 'the District Aboriginal Focus School program".[12][13] The name, which means "cedar" in the henqeminem dialect of the Musqueam nation, was nominated by Chief Wayne Sparrow and Musqueam council members.[13] The change became official following a Musqueam renaming ceremony on June 1, 2018.[14] Because of its low enrollment and high seismic risk, Xpey’ was shortlisted for closure in 2015, but Vancouver City Council elected to keep it open until at least 2020.[15] Xpey' is located at 1959 East Hastings Street in East Vancouver's Grandview-Woodland area, but since becoming a First Nations focus school in 2012, its catchment area has switched from local to district.[14]
