Founded in 1997, the mission of Lynn-Rose is to provide individually oriented, student-led instruction, challenging all to reach their potential within the core academic fields and beyond. The blend of the Ontario and International Baccalaureate (IB) curricula is a draw for the families that enrol here, as are the quality of instruction and the very porous interface between families and faculty. The math and literacy programs have students working a grade ahead of their peers in the public system, with further acceleration offered to students able to function at that level. The attention to values, including those underscored within the IB programs, is also a draw. There is a lot going on, though a close attention to the specific skills, abilities, and needs of each student—as well as a broad range of resources to address them—is a distinguishing factor of the Lynn-Rose offering.

View full reportRosthern Junior College began in 1905 with one teacher and eight students and a desire to fill a need within the Mennonite community. It’s grown in every way, though remains true to the initial goal of educating students through their interests and through their faith. One aspect of RJCs development that the founders perhaps couldn’t have foreseen in 1905 is the extension of the offering to international students, who now make up 15% of the student population, adding a unique perspective to the lived experience of the school. While half of the population of the school is Mennonite, the other half includes other denominations and non-denominational students, all drawn by the range of programs on offer, the personal focus, a dedication to service learning and character development. Classes are small, with lots of personal attention, which students rightly appreciate. Faculty make it a priority to take learning out of the classroom, and to build relationships with the community, something that has become a focus of the programming. Students are encouraged not only to excel academically, but also to apply their skills, abilities, and time to making a difference in the world.

"Amazing Learning is at the forefront of Lynn Rose Schools, which is why LRS has three significant accreditations. Ontario Ministry of Education, International Baccalaureate and Cognia, all require annual audits of the campuses. Cognia specifically focuses on the continuous improvement and development of not only students, but also our staff and facilities, which marks our commitment to better learner outcomes."
"An underrated aspect of RJC's school community is our focus on student health and wellness. This is done through our student BELONG program, led by our dormitory deans. All RJC students have access to diverse academic, physical, and emotional supports during their time as a student. Included in this is an incredible meal plan, which offers healthy and diverse food options for students. If students require additional supports, they are welcome to connect with the VP of Student Life."
"Lynn Rose Schools has two distinct campuses to better support learners with their educational needs, starting from Early Years to High School . Our warm and inclusive school atmosphere is brought to life through decorated student work that flow outside of the classroom into the hallways; ensuring that our student body is always surrounded by their continuous progress. Upon initial conversation with our students you can feel their passion for curiosity and knowledge."
"The level of participation in school activities is very high at RJC. In a typical year, approximately 80% of our students are involved in the athletics program, 91% are involved in the music and arts program, and 80% of RJC students join a school club. We believe when students are invested and involved in activities they are able to thrive in all aspects of learning."
"We're thrilled to introduce the Advanced Placement (AP) program at Lynn-Rose School, offering an exciting opportunity for high school students to engage in challenging university-level courses. Developed by the College Board in the 1950s, this program spans subjects such as math, science, history, literature, and foreign languages.
Tailored for students passionate about specific subjects and who value essential skills like critical thinking and time management, the AP Program encourages your child to apply. It's a pathway for academic excellence and the cultivation of a strong work ethic. Lynn-Rose is proud to be part of the educational collaboration between high schools and colleges or universities.
Additionally, we're pleased to offer the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP) in grades 9 and 10. In grades 11 and 12, students can choose to continue with their Ontario Secondary School Credits or opt for AP courses; providing flexibility to our students."

Progressive (sometimes called "in- quiry-based") curricula attempt to place children's interests and ideas at the heart of the learning experience. Instead of lessons being driven by predetermined pathways, progressive curricula are often "emergent", with learning activities shaped by students' questions about the world. Instead of starting with academic concepts and then tying it to everyday experience, progressive methods begin with everyday experience and work back to an academic lesson. Teachers provide materials, experiences, tools and resources to help students investigate a topic or issue. Students are encouraged to explore, reflect on their findings, and discuss answers or solutions.

At Lynn-Rose we align our overall school curriculum within the framework of the (IB) International Baccalaureate Programme, providing the most unique and comprehensive learning experience available in the Greater Toronto Area. Flexibility in our Programme encourages students to achieve the expected outcomes in a manner conducive to their own learning style. At Lynn-Rose, your child will thrive within our outstanding academic curriculum and will have the opportunity to explore the arts through creativity, music and drama.
All academic programs at RJC meet curricular standards set by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education. Grade 10 - IMAGINE: A peacebuilding program IMAGINE is a full year, multi-credit grade 10 global-citizenship program that emphasizes collaboration, hands-on learning and community building. Students will spend periods of time outside the classroom applying their classroom learning in practical settings. Grade 11 - THRIVE: A wellness program THRIVE is a full year, multi-credit grade grade 11 wellness program that will assist students to grow and develop as individuals and as contributing members of their communities. Particular focus is given to an understanding of personal, mental health, and well as the wellness of creation and the community. Grade 12 - EXPLORE: A leadership development program EXPLORE is a full year, multi-credit grade 12 leadership program, with a particular focus on exploring post-secondary opportunities. Throughout the year students will explore diverse models of leadership, explore their own strengths, gifts, and values, and apply their learning in spaces outside of the classroom.

These math programs feature an equal balance of “Traditional” and “Discovery” methods.
Aligning the Ontario Mathematics Curriculum with the framework of International Baccalaureate Continuum is a unique opportunity for Lynn-Rose learners to build, develop and enhance their numeracy skills. In the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), mathematics is viewed primarily as a vehicle to support inquiry, providing a universal language through which we make sense of the world around us. Mathematics is an essential tool for transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary inquiry. As students progress from the MYP to the DP, the emphasis on understanding increases as students work towards developing a strong mathematical knowledge base that will allow them to study a wide range of topics. At Lynn-Rose Schools, mathematics is a tool for solving problems in an authentic real-life context.
Each mathematics teacher has his or her own classroom dynamic and structure. Our methods are rooted in traditional learning and an understanding of fundamental math skills. Inquiry activities and problem-based lessons are integrated throughout the courses as is appropriate for students' needs and abilities.
As a school we use the textbooks developed for the latest provincial math curriculum.
Math teachers ask students to own a calculator suited to his or her course choice. We encourage students to use their calculator as an aide to their education.

Systematic-phonics programs teach young children to read by helping them to recognize and sound out the letters and syllables of words. Students are then led to blend these sounds together to sound out and recognize the whole word. While other reading programs might touch on phonetics (either incidentally or on a “when needed” basis), systematic phonics teaches phonics in a specific sequence, and uses extensive repetition and direct instruction to help readers associate specific letter patterns with their associated sounds.
Not applicable
Lynn-Rose Schools strives to help students become enthusiastic readers and writers. Our phonics program carries both systematic and incidental approaches starting in Junior Kindergarten. The first approach follows a consistent framework, and uses systematic synthetic phonics as the main route to reading unknown words. However, students also have the opportunity to inevitably encounter words through reading and responding to texts. Combining both approaches in our classes helps students develop automaticity as they move to higher grade levels.

The systematic approach to teaching beginner writing focuses on directly imparting explicit sentence construction strategies, along with planning, revising, and editing skills. Students are asked to learn these explicit strategies and skills and practice them before applying them in more holistic writing assignments. Grammar and parts of sentences tend to have a central role in systematic writing instruction.
Not applicable
At Lynn-Rose Schools, writing is a fundamental skill, starting in early years as part of our literacy program. Students develop the skills to use the evidence-based strategy of combining words and sentences. Moreover, students combine multiple ideas into a single sentence. Students learn to edit, proofread and and publish their writing while being provided structured instructions and feedback. Lynn-Rose strives to plant the love of writing in all students and develop their talents and skills through unstructured and creative writing opportunities inside and outside the classroom.

The Expanding Communities approach organizes the curriculum around students’ present, everyday experience. In the younger grades, students might learn about themselves, for example. As they move through the grades, the focus gradually broadens in scope: to the family, neighbourhood, city, province, country, and globe. The curriculum tends to have less focus on history than Core Knowledge programs.

Given RJC’s emphasis on faith, service, and peacemaking, courses in the humanities and social sciences emphasize contemporary experiences and real-world problems. With a firm grounding in the way the past continues to shape the present, students are engaged with relevant questions about the condition of communities at home and around the world. The use of projects and tasks as primary assessment tools reflect our underlying goals of critical thinking and real-life skills.

Creative
These programs have an equal emphasis on receptive and creative learning.
Creative arts programs are studio-driven. While historical works and movements may still be taught to add context to the program, students mainly engage in making art (visual, musical, theatrical, etc). The goal is use the actual practice of art to help educate students’ emotions, cognition, and ethos.
Fine arts allow students to tap into their own creativity, develop strong communication skills and connect cross-curricular ideas in new ways. In many of the fine arts offered at RJC, students must learn to work together and for each other, requiring trust and reliance upon other students (ex. Putting together a play requires communicating ideas, teamwork to build sets, choral singing necessitates interdependence to create a fully-formed musical idea). Fine arts allow for a physical expression of mental, emotion and spiritual themes and ideas and so students should be allowed to access these internal feelings and to express them in ways that they may not feel able in other, “traditional” classrooms. This promotes self-agency, requires self-motivation and fosters co-operation. In this way, fine arts do not only improve skills within themselves, but impart students with the skills and tools to thrive in all areas of life.

Medium integration
A major effort is made to integrate the development of digital literacy throughout the curriculum and in everything students do. Digital literacy is understood to be a fundamental skill in the 21st century: it therefore follows, the idea goes, that teachers should find ways to connect every lesson back to technology. Effort is made to ensure the use of technology is meaningful and advances students’ skills beyond what they would otherwise be from using computers outside the classroom.

RJC’s physical education program seeks to combine skill development with engagement and participation in physical activity. Our goals include promoting attitudes which will lead to lifelong physical activity, engaging students in volunteer activities, and fostering safe conduct in physical activities. We are less focused on competition, and more focused on community and team building. The grade 11 class participates in outdoor education, which usually takes the form of either a hiking trip or a canoe trip.

Academic-based preschools and Kindergartens are the most structured of the different types, and have a strong emphasis on math and reading readiness skills. These programs aim to expose children to what early-elementary school is like. While time is still allotted to free play, much of the day is built around explicit lessons guided by the teacher. Classrooms often resemble play-based ones (with different stations set up around the room), but at an Academic program the teacher leads students through the stations directly, and ties these activities to a whole-class lesson or theme.

Standard-enriched
The main curriculum accelerates beyond the pace of the provincial one; ALL students do the work of OLDER public-school peers in tangible and measurable ways. This accelerated pace is maintained by the teachers and school, (through textbook selection, topic selection, grading, assignment standards and expectations, etc).
Broadly-speaking, the main curriculum -- like that of most schools -- paces the provincially-outlined one. This pace is steady and set by the teachers and school. The curriculum might still be enriched in various ways: covering topics more in-depth and with more vigor than the provincial one, or covering a broader selection of topics.

Supportive
A school with a “rigorous” academic culture places a high value on academic performance, and expects their students to do the same. This does not mean the school is uncaring, unsupportive, or non-responsive -- far from it. A school can have a rigorous academic culture and still provide excellent individual support. It does mean, however, the school places a particular emphasis on performance -- seeking the best students and challenging them to the fullest extent -- relative to a normal baseline. High expectations and standards – and a challenging yet rewarding curriculum – are the common themes here. Keep in mind this classification is more relevant for the older grades: few Kindergarten classrooms, for example, would be called “rigorous”.
A school with a “supportive” academic culture focuses more on process than short-term outcomes: academic performance is a welcomed side-benefit, but not the driving focus. This does not mean the school lacks standards, or has low expectations for its students: a school can have a supportive academic culture and still light the fire of ambition in its students. It does mean, however, the school provides a less intensive culture than schools with a “rigorous” academic classification, and is focused more simply on instilling a love of learning and life-long curiosity.
With a smaller size class, students are able to have more one-on-one opportunities with the teachers, and a tigher relationship with their classmates. The teachers get to know each student really well, both academically and personally, creating a stronger learning community.

The Lynn-Rose Schools leadership team and educators are committed to supporting students throughout the learning process to develop life skills and build their own agency by adapting the IBO philosophy for placing the learner in the center of education. Since experiences during the early years lay the foundation for all future learning, early learners emerge with life skills development with the support of their educators. Our school is proud of the holistic learning experience that integrates socio-emotional, physical and cognitive development.
To be living and learning in this community, students will have the opportunity to be independent of their parents, and learn to live with other people. Through arts and sports, students are able to improve socially outside of the classroom, and gain support from the community.
