Canada’s largest Private School Expo takes place this weekend at Roy Thomson Hall, with more than 2,000 people expected to attend. Over 70 schools will be represented at the Expo, which has been held annually since 2002. Many schools are located in Toronto and area, but schools from places as diverse as Nova Scotia, California, Virginia, and elsewhere will also be in attendance.
Both parents and schools rave about the Private School Expo in Toronto as an unparalleled experience in meeting each other and understanding how schools can match families’ needs.
One parent at least year’s expo called it “a must for parents researching educational options for their children,” adding, “I was able to get more information about schools in one spot and it saved me a lot of time.”
Ruth Ann Penny of Branksome Hall in Toronto said that last year’s expo “was one of the liveliest and successful we have ever attended.”
Media and families are invited to attend the Toronto Private School Expo to find out about the value of private education in Canada.
Presentations at this year’s expo will include the following:
• How to choose a school offers parents a step-by-step approach to choosing the right school for your child. There are many factors to consider when choosing a school, and what may be a great school for your neighbour’s child may not be the best fit for yours.
• How to pay for private school, presented by financial experts, tells you how to work education costs into your budget and offers details about incentives like tax benefits, grants and scholarships.
• Boarding Schools — An opportunity of a lifetime challenges parents to fully consider this option. Boarding schools today offer tremendous advantages. The session offers a peak into life at boarding school and identifies some of the common myths causing parents to miss an opportunity to give their children a great gift.
