History

General Wolfe Elementary was built in 1910. In 1912, two additional wings were added due to expanding population. Then in 1920 two wooden temporary buildings were built. These two buildings are still the annex and the gym today. General Wolfe also has three portables which are used as classrooms. General Wolfe Elementary was named after General James Wolfe.
