“Everyone we met in the Bayview Glen community emphasized that it’s a place where all types of students can find a sense of belonging.”
“Student well-being–academic, social, and emotional–is paramount at Bayview Glen. There are always multiple pairs of eyes on every student, ensuring they’re doing all right and getting them the support they need if they aren’t.”
“Bayview Glen is undoubtedly a school that nurtures and values high academic achievement, yet students can always access extra help, whether on an ongoing or time-limited basis.”

“One thing that characterizes the student population, in our experience, is that the students all have clear ambitions—they all want to go places.”
“Faculty describe the school as happy and supportive, something that the parents we spoke with all seconded.”
Read The Our Kids Review of Crestwood Preparatory College
It's a big world out there, with lots of big ideas in it, and Bayview Glen prides itself on offering students an introduction to all its breadth and complexity. The school is part of the Round Square network of schools, which reflects that ambition; the program includes cross-curricular links to concepts of community, self-reliance, and entrepreneurialism. For some students, it can be a lot, perhaps especially for those within the younger grades—the school admits students from preschool through to grade 12. A broad range of curricular and co-curricular activities back up the school's promise to deliver the world: Mandarin classes, a model United Nations program, as well as a range of arts and athletics. While learner support is provided, the ideal student is one who is able to thrive in an intellectually diverse, academically challenging environment.
View full reportThere is a rich program of extra-curriculars, though the focus is on academics, including the development of sound study and test-taking skills. The Maximizing Academic Performance Program (MAPP) begins in the lower school, and augments a traditional approach to education, one that is didactic and where assessment is objective. The ideal students are those who have their sights set clearly on success within a university career, are motivated toward that goal, and are seeking to augment or improve their academic prospects.

"Bayview Glen is an accredited, co-educational independent day school serving students from Toddler (age 2) through Grade 12. Founded in 1962, the school is guided by the mission “Whole Child. Purposeful Life. Better World," and is grounded in the core values of compassion, curiosity, and courage. Across two closely connected campuses in North York, Bayview Glen offers one continuous and thoughtfully designed educational journey. Our diverse community is shaped by expert educators, strong relationships, and a forward-thinking curriculum that encourages students to ask meaningful questions, take intellectual risks, and act with empathy and integrity. We nurture curiosity through engaging learning experiences, cultivate compassion through connection and service, and build courage by supporting students as they challenge themselves and grow with confidence. Bayview Glen graduates are well prepared for top universities and equipped with the adaptability, ethical grounding, and perspective needed to thrive and lead in a rapidly changing world."
"Crestwood Preparatory College is a non-denominational, non-semestered university preparatory school. Crestwood Preparatory College prepares students not simply for university but to make meaningful contributions to the world beyond the classroom. To that end, we provide an educational experience second to none. We take students between grades 7 and 12 and form them into exemplary leaders in their professions, communities, and beyond. Our commitment to hiring the best teachers means that students receive more than simply lessons in academics. They receive the encouragement, the nurturing and the support required to excel at their goals and foster dreams for their long-term success. Students are encouraged to achieve their highest potential by balancing academic, co-curricular and social pursuits within a structured, disciplined, nurturing environment. We offer complete programs in music, art, drama, technology, and other specialized areas where our students have shown a keen interest. We subscribe to the philosophy that well-rounded leaders have interests beyond their academics that are equally important and ignite the passion to succeed in all areas of their studies. Our students learn the hard work and discipline necessary for success and are well-equipped with the tools they need to achieve it."
"Bayview Glen distinguishes itself through a long‑view educational continuum, a global perspective, and an intentional focus on experiential learning. As members of Round Square, we embed our values of leadership, service, democracy, environmental stewardship, and internationalism into daily school life. This reflects our belief that students learn best when values are experienced, not just taught.
Academic enrichment is supported through Advanced Placement, allowing students to explore subjects in greater depth while maintaining balance across a broad and engaging school experience. Learning beyond the classroom is a core element of a Bayview Glen education and includes international travel opportunities, outdoor education, philanthropy initiatives, and real‑world problem‑solving opportunities. Together, these experiences reflect our commitment to developing independent thinkers and compassionate leaders prepared to navigate complexity and change."
"Crestwood prides itself on both an exceptional academic and co-curricular program. Our co-curricular program includes several areas of interest ranging from high level sports teams to unique clubs that any student can join during their school year. Our co-curricular Elite Basketball and Hockey programs are widely known throughout the GTA and beyond, but Crestwood does not stop there. We have over 45 sports teams and over 55 clubs which are open to all ages and abilities."

"At Crestwood, our commitment to fostering a well-rounded, academically focused, and community-driven environment means that we prioritize individualized attention, a strong values-based education, and the development of both academic and social skills in our students. We do this by concentrating on the following; We prioritize personalized attention and differentiated instruction in small classes, which allows us to cater to each student's unique needs.
We maintain a structured, disciplined environment that promotes responsibility, respect, and hard work.
While we understand the importance of technology in the modern world, Crestwood has chosen to strike a balance between integrating technological tools and maintaining traditional teaching methods. Our focus on face-to-face interaction, critical thinking, and classic academic disciplines may sometimes take precedence over fully digitized learning environments, allowing us to ensure a balanced and thoughtful approach to education."
"Several key moments have shaped Bayview Glen into the relationship-driven, future-focused school it is today. Founded in 1962 by Lois Doreen Hopkins as a nursery school and day camp, it was built on the belief that children learn best when they are deeply known, nurtured, and supported as individuals. This philosophy continues to guide its commitment to whole-child development.
In the 1980s and 1990s, Bayview Glen expanded into a full elementary and secondary program, graduating its first class in 1991 and establishing a complete academic pathway while maintaining a close-knit community. The opening of the Upper School campus in 2000 strengthened its university-preparatory focus and global outlook. Today, a transformational new build—featuring C-STEM and innovation spaces, an aquatics facility, and flexible learning environments—reflects its continued investment in innovation, wellbeing, and community."
"Crestwood has significantly expanded its curriculum to include a wide range of advanced placement (AP) courses, arts programs, and signature programs like the Oral History Project. This has positioned the school as a leader in academic excellence and innovative learning experiences. The expansion has cemented Crestwood's brand as a forward-thinking institution that nurtures both traditional academic success and experiential learning. The development of a comprehensive athletic program was a significant turning point. It reinforced the school’s commitment to a balanced, holistic education where students are encouraged to excel both in academics and athletics. Crestwood’s athletic success in various leagues strengthened the school’s brand as a place that fosters not only intellectual achievement but also physical well-being, teamwork, and school spirit.Crestwood has embraced initiatives that promote diversity and inclusion, which has become a central part of who we are."
"Bayview Glen is well suited to students who benefit from a thoughtful balance of structure and personal attention and who are motivated to engage fully in academics while also exploring the arts, athletics, and leadership opportunities available to them. Students who thrive in a diverse, co‑educational environment where relationships and a strong sense of community are central to the learning experience often find Bayview Glen a strong fit.
While many families value the continuity of progressing through the school over time, Bayview Glen also welcomes students at various entry points. The School is intentional about ensuring that new students are known, supported, and quickly integrated into the life of the community. As a result, Bayview Glen appeals both to families seeking long term consistency and to those joining later who are looking for a connected, values aligned environment in which their child can thrive."
"Crestwood Preparatory College attracts students who are committed to academic excellence, personal growth, and making a positive difference in their communities. While each student is unique, they share a common commitment to learning, leadership, and community engagement. We are looking for students who are motivated, academically driven, and one who has a passion for interests outside of the classroom such as extra-curricular activities."
"Bayview Glen is intentionally designed for families who value a co-educational environment where children are known well, supported closely, and cared for as whole individuals. Our approach places strong emphasis on wellbeing, relationships, and connection, with educators and staff actively involved in students’ academic, social, and emotional development.
The school experience is personal, relational, and thoughtfully guided rather than distant or impersonal. Families who are seeking a hands off or highly anonymous educational model may find this approach does not align with their expectations or educational priorities."
"Crestwood Prep College is designed for students who thrive in a structured, academically rigorous environment that emphasizes leadership, community, and personal growth. Families looking for a completely unstructured or highly casual school experience may find our focus on accountability, advisory programs, and high expectations challenging. Similarly, our emphasis on student voice, collaborative learning, and community engagement may not align with families seeking a purely traditional, lecture-driven approach. At Crestwood, we celebrate students who want to be active participants in their education, who value personal development alongside academics, and who are willing to contribute to a supportive and inclusive school community. Families whose priorities differ significantly from these values may find that another school is a better fit for their child."
"Community sits at the heart of the Bayview Glen experience, and is one of the primary reasons families choose the School. Parents are drawn to an environment where their children are academically challenged while also being genuinely known and supported within caring and connected community.
Families frequently highlight close relationships with educators, individualized attention, and a balanced approach that integrates academics, wellbeing, and co‑curricular opportunities into daily life. Alumni often echo these sentiments, reflecting on how the supportive community shaped their confidence, character, and sense of purpose. Many credit Bayview Glen with preparing them not only for the academic demands of post-secondary studies but also for life beyond it."
"Crestwood prides itself on our dedicated teachers with advanced degrees who love what they do and appreciate their students.
“I am a grade-ten student that just switched to Crestwood this year. From the minute I started, I have never met such great staff and students that are so welcoming. This year has been amazing already, and I love to come to school each day. Thank you for making learning so much fun! —S. Mincer”"
"Bayview Glen is widely viewed as a well-established and values driven independent school that combines strong academic preparation with a deep commitment to the whole child. The School is associated with balance, offering rigorous pathways to post-secondary studies alongside meaningful opportunities in the arts, athletics, leadership, and experiential learning.
Our Toddler (age 2) through Grade 12 continuum is seen as a source of stability and continuity, while our diverse, co-educational environment reflects a culture that is inclusive and grounded in real world preparation. Publicly, Bayview Glen is recognized not only for consistently strong post-secondary outcomes, but also for the way students are supported, and grow with confidence, character, and purpose."
"Crestwood Preparatory College can be seen as an institution with high academic standards as well as community involvement. Our current and previous students have helped in putting Crestwood on the map for athletics and academics. Our continued student success has helped us become what we are today."
"An underappreciated strength of Bayview Glen is the depth of continuity within the school community. As a Toddler (age 2) through Grade 12 school, many students begin in the early years and graduate as lifers having spent more than a decade within one consistent learning culture, shaped by shared values, common language, and enduring relationships.
This continuity is further strengthened by remarkable faculty and staff retention, with many educators having taught at Bayview Glen for ten plus years. The presence of long-tenured teachers provides stability, institutional knowledge, and deep understanding of students’ developmental journeys, contributing to a learning environment that is both grounded and responsive."
"Crestwood offers an abundance of extra curricular opportunities for all. If we don't have what your son or daughter is looking for, then we will create it. We believe that the inclusion of all is absolute necessary in order for everyone to enjoy their time while at Crestwood. Teachers continue to volunteer their time outside of the classroom in order to ensure that everyone is happy."
"Families are often surprised by how intentionally Bayview Glen’s founding philosophy continues to shape the School today. Established in 1962 with the belief that every child is precious, Bayview Glen remains deeply committed to nurturing strong relationships and knowing students as individuals.
Despite its size and scope, educators are highly accessible and deeply engaged in each child’s growth. Learning experiences are thoughtfully crafted, supports are carefully aligned to students’ needs, and students are encouraged to grow with confidence, curiosity, and a strong sense of responsibility to others."
"Crestwood offers a family feel. We are a community who believes strongly in the old saying that it takes a village to raise a child. Each and every teacher, administrator, cafeteria staff and fellow students proudly take a hand in helping to make Crestwood feel like a close knit community."
"In recent years, Bayview Glen has made significant investments to enhance both its campus and the student experience. Most notably, the School is completing a transformational New Build, scheduled to open in June 2026.This development reflects our ongoing commitment to wellbeing, innovation, and connection.
This addition includes a C‑STEM and Innovation Lab, an indoor aquatics facility featuring a 5-lane pool, a new gymnasium, outdoor discovery learning areas, a dedicated Health Centre, and flexible environments that support learning, movement, and collaboration. Together with continued programme enhancements, these improvements nurture the while child and allow Bayview Glen to better serve students today while preparing them for an ever-changing world."
"At Crestwood Prep College, our commitments to mental health, academic excellence, community building, cultural representation, STEM access, environmental sustainability, and student voice are not abstract ideals,they are reflected in the concrete changes we have intentionally implemented this year. Through our structured advisory and mentorship program, every student in Grades 7–12 is known, supported, and guided by a consistent adult advocate, reinforcing our proactive approach to mental wellness and belonging. We have strengthened academic monitoring and cross-grade collaboration to ensure excellence is not simply expected but strategically supported. By creating cross-grade connections, expanding student leadership opportunities, integrating diverse representation into programming, increasing hands-on STEM learning, and fostering environmental responsibility, we are shaping a school culture where students are heard, prepared, and empowered."
"Over the next five years, Bayview Glen will continue to strengthen its role as a leader in bold thinking and future readiness while remaining firmly grounded in its founding values. Experiential and interdisciplinary learning will deepen, enabling students to apply their knowledge meaningfully beyond the classroom.
Academic excellence will continue to evolve through innovative pedagogy, thoughtful integration of technology, and sustained professional learning for faculty and staff. Our focus on student wellbeing, identity, and belonging will expand further, reinforcing our commitment to pluralism. Through strong partnerships, global and community-connected learning opportunities, and adaptable learning environments, Bayview Glen prepares graduates who are confident, ethical, and ready to thrive in a rapidly changing world."
"In the next five years, Crestwood will continue to inspire excellence and nurture individuality. We will continue to do this by integrating the latest technology and continuing to expand and meet the academic needs of all of our students. Crestwood also aims to continue to focus on wellness and mental health while still providing diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives."
As a dedicated community of learners and leaders, Bayview Glen is a world class, co-educational institution that provides a wealth of opportunities for aspiring young minds to explore, experience and discover their passions through a rigorous, academic and supportive learning environment guided by our talented faculty and staff. Our mission is Whole Child: Whole Life: Whole World.
As a vibrant school community, it is paramount at its core that each individual feels welcomed, understood and valued. Our teachers place a high priority on engagement, mentorship and character development through our core values of Respect, Responsibility, Compassion, Integrity, Equity and Balance. The fundamental building block of feeling a sense of belonging allows for greater opportunities and pathways for students to learn, explore, discover and experience the enrichment through our academic and extensive co-curricular programmes.
In today’s world and tomorrow’s pathway for students, one of the important goals of educational institutions is to teach our generation, not only to strive to be the best of who they are and get to a good place, but do it in a good way, with purpose and passion.
I invite you to contact our Admissions Department and visit our campus to experience firsthand our unique place of learning where students are provided a wealth of opportunities to discover their passions and purpose.
“Crestwood’s most important mandate is to provide an environment where students can walk into school every morning and know that they will be respected for who they are and what they bring to the school as individuals. With this mindset, success on all fronts is virtually limitless. The entire Crestwood community is proud to be part of this philosophy. We constantly strive to uphold this promise and give our students the best possible education. ”

Traditional
Information not available
Traditional curricula tend to be very content-based and rooted in the core disciplines. It is a structured approach that involves the teacher delivering a unified curriculum through direct instruction. Students usually learn by observing and listening to their teacher, studying facts and concepts in textbooks, and completing both tests and written assignments - which challenge students to not only demonstrate their mastery of content but their ability to analyze and deconstruct it critically. Class discussions are also used to create critical dialogue around the content of the curriculum.

Educating the whole child requires we provide a wide range of opportunities for students to explore. Developing an entrepreneurial mindset and establishing excellent communication skills are also top priorities.
Our curriculum approach essentially involves two important attributes, enrichment and preparation. Students are regularly provided in class and out-of-class opportunities to participate in activities and subjects that will only add to their life's experience in a positive manner. Many of these pursuits will become the basis and raw material for more specific or sophisticated skill development or awareness.

Reggio Emilia programs aim to develop curiosity and problem-solving skills through the liberal use of “projects”, (as opposed to “activities” or “lessons”). Teachers design projects for children around their demonstrated interests. Projects can be geared to an individual student, a small group of students, or the class as a whole. Projects can last from a few days to the whole year. Art is strongly emphasized and is typically incorporated into every project. Teachers actively participate in projects alongside students, rather than sitting back and observing. A high degree of parent involvement is also encouraged, particularly when forming curriculums and project plans (which happens throughout the academic year).

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.

We understand the importance of providing students with a foundation in basic skills through a structured environment and with a process-based approach to learning. Academic and life skills success does not solely rely on mastering content; it is critical that students begin to acquire skills such as time management, self-advocacy, study habits and communication skills with the end goal of independently accomplishing them.

Crestwood feels it imperative that the learning style of each student is understood and encouraged in order to inspire success. Our Student Services Department meet with students on an ongoing basis and these meetings allow us to communicate directly with students about their academic experience, and then liaise with teachers and parents regarding each student’s strengths and needs. During these sessions, we have the opportunity to discuss strategies and tools that students can apply to experience future success.
