Director
specialist in gifted education
Being heavily immersed in gifted education since the early 1980s and having two gifted sons of my own, I opened the doors of The Academy for Gifted Children - P.A.C.E. in 1993. The most rewarding part of my job is interacting with the students. They are fun loving, witty and demonstrate an intellectual curiosity that is any educator's dream. The energy level in the building is very high, the questioning by the students is incessant, and there are a lot of laughs. The skills for succeeding at P.A.C.E., whether in the role of teacher or student, are the same: a love of learning, high motivation, an excellent work ethic and a sense of humour. I am so fortunate to be surrounded by excellent teachers and a strong administrative staff: my Vice Principal, Janice Gruchy, and Alysa and Liana, my administrative assistants. Every September we look forward to yet another passionate and exciting year for all.
P.A.C.E. provides a differentiated curriculum built on greater depth and breadth of instruction. Our primary goal is to find and enhance the abilities of our students, while simultaneously addressing their social and emotional needs. P.A.C.E. is based on the premise that gifted children need high-powered learning experiences to challenge their minds and ensure intellectual growth and achievement. A fully balanced program including The Arts and Athletics complements this specialized academic program.
Academy for Gifted Children - P.A.C.E is a private Gifted day school in Richmond Hill, Ontario. The school offers programs for grades 1 to 12 with enrolment of 300 day students. Academy for Gifted Children - P.A.C.E has an average class size of 15 students and has a tuition cost of $11,500. Founded in 1993, this private school does not require students to wear uniforms and the language of instruction is English.
