Following the Ontario curriculum, we provide a project based learning environment in which students gain knowledge and skills by working for an extended period of time to investigate and respond to a complex question, problem, or challenge. Our small class sizes and close-knit community ensure that each student is seen, respected, valued and challenged, resulting in a truly unique education, crafted to the needs and personality of each student.
Differentiated curriculum delivery creates unlimited possibilities.
“Education should not be the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
— W. B. Yeats
Learning happens naturally when it's experienced.
“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.”
—Benjamin Franklin
Experience in diverse classrooms lead to an understanding of the world.
“The wise man belongs to all countries, for the home of a great soul is the whole world.”
—Democritus
Students discover new capacities for critical thinking and forming independent judgments. Students become financially literate in the Canadian system, learn to open their own business, use technology to their best advantage, read classics and explore scientific concepts. Classes debate ethical issues in science, history, economics and literature. Students write poetry, engage in a variety of mathematical reasoning, inquire, hypothesize and conduct hands-on lab experiments. Our teachers present demanding, open-ended topics that encourage students to observe, compare, analyze, create, question and imagine alternatives. They then help students understand why those concepts are important and how they can be applied in the real world. By combining theory and practice students gain a true understanding of the world around them.
There are five ESL courses that are based on levels of proficiency in English. Depending on learners’ previous experience with English, students may be placed in ESL Level 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.
