  Developmental Priorities

  N/A

  Balanced

  Equal emphasis is placed on a balance of priorities: intellectual, emotional, social and physical cultivation.

  Intellectual

  The goal is to cultivate "academically strong, creative and critical thinkers, capable of exercising rationality, apprehending truth, and making aesthetic distinctions."

  Curriculum pace

  N/A

  Standard-enriched

  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.

  Academic culture

  N/A

  Supportive

  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.

  "Our unique approach to the curriculum allows us to integrate learning to make it more meaningful and broaden our students' perspectives. This is valued by prospective families, but word of mouth has taught us that this is not their focus. The aspect of our programs that our present parents value most is the clear and focused individual attention that their child receives from our staff and really the whole community. Every staff member knows and can be a support for each and every student."

  "We are an international community, both students and staff, and we actively value and celebrate cultural differences. This tolerance and celebration of the things that make us unique inevitably spills over to the way we treat other personal differences. Bullying, while occasionally present, is seldom an issue. Students who have differences or are awkward socially are accepted and included in school life and become leaders. This is a very valuable consequence of building respect and tolerance."
