Mission statement

The school's mission statement is:

Alternative programs

Fellowes offers several alternative options. The most popular though, is the KI Program. The KI program is a partnership between KI (Kruger International Pembroke) and the Renfrew County District School Board. It serves to facilitate school–work transition for high school students. For over ten years it has been running as one of the school board's options for the Alternative School Program. Half of the day the students work on their individualized curriculum plans(correspondence). Co-op placements and industrial training on the factory floor make up the other half of their day.^[3]
