Manotick Public School west sideLocated in Manotick near the centre of Long Island in the Rideau River, Manotick Public School is a public elementary school offering the regular English and Early French Immersion programs from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 5. The attendance area includes the village of Manotick and vicinity and also parts of the southeast Nepean, southwest Gloucester and northwest Osgoode areas.

Manotick Public School follows a Balanced School Day schedule for Grades 1 through 8, in which the day is organized into three large blocks of uninterrupted instructional time, with two breaks for nutrition and recess (in late morning and early afternoon).  Schools following a Balanced School Day schedule in the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board have found it provides more uninterrupted learning time for students as well as better opportunities for extracurricular activities during the two longer breaks.  Junior and Senior Kindergarten programs do not follow the Balanced School Day schedule, and continue to be offered as half-day programs in the 2010-2011 school year.

Manotick Public School original 1941 stonesAn active and involved school council works to enhance student learning in many different ways, including the development of a butterfly garden on the school grounds in 2010.

Opened in 1942 as a continuation school, Manotick Public School received a major addition in 1964, as well as subsequent renovations and upgrades, including the development of a networked computer lab. Its spacious playground is adjacent to a park and soccer field. Manotick P.S. enjoys the support of a number of service organizations in the community. The school community values rich local traditions and history dating from Manotick's 19th century origins as a mill-town and overnight stop for Rideau River traffic.

On completion of Grade 5 at Manotick Public School, students are directed to Rideau Valley Middle School in Kars for Grades 6 to 8 in the regular English and Early French Immersion programs.  Students in the English program may  transfer into the Middle French Immersion program at Kars Public School when they enter Grade 4.
