Sherwood Heights intends to give students a strong foundation for further study, granted through a traditional, content-based academic program. Expectations are clear and explicit, including a demonstrable facility with the core curriculum and the development of watertight study habits. For many families that culture—one in which social currency is gained through academics—is a primary draw. Extra-curricular programs augment the core areas of instruction. The ideal student is one who is academically inclined, operating at the top of their peer group, and looking for an environment that prizes all of that.
View full reportSJR was founded in 1820 principally to serve the children of the Selkirk settlers. By 1834 there were forty students, evenly split between boys and girls. The school has inevitably grown and changed over the years since, though it’s success throughout has been unimpeachable. SJR has graduated 18 Rhodes scholars, for example, and the Queen granted patronage and established a scholarship in her name in 1981. Today the programs are as strong as the school’s reputation. A strong academic program is paired with an equally strong attention to the values of stewardship, ethical leadership, and excellence in all areas of academic, social, and athletic life. A strategic plan to culminate in 2020, the school’s bi-centennial, is intended to further develop the school’s campus and programs; it's intended not as a revolution, says the head of school, Jim Keefe, but as the impetus for further evolution of what the school has been providing. The ideal student in one with sights set on post-secondary studies, and able to thrive in a challenging, expansive academic environment.

"Sherwood Heights School is a leading private school in Mississauga, offering a comprehensive K–12 programme. Motivated students thrive in a structured and supportive environment where small class sizes allow experienced teachers to provide individualized attention that builds strong academic foundations and fosters confidence, knowledge, and excellence. In the elementary years, students develop essential skills in literacy, mathematics, and critical thinking through a rigorous, mastery-based approach that emphasizes problem-solving and clear communication. Learning is supported by both targeted academic support and enrichment, alongside French, science and technology, and integrated computer and business studies. A variety of clubs, events, and competitions further extend learning beyond the classroom. As students progress through middle and high school, they benefit from specialized academic pathways, leadership development, and diverse co-curricular opportunities. With a proven record of admission to competitive university programmes, Sherwood Heights provides a clear pathway to future success."
"St. John’s-Ravenscourt School (SJR), Western Canada’s oldest independent school, has a 23-acre campus nestled within an oxbow of the Red River. As an all-gender, non-denominational Independent School, we foster strong relationships, purposeful learning, and high expectations to help students grow in confidence, character, and capability. As a university-preparatory school, we intentionally equip students with the critical thinking, independence, and depth of knowledge needed for life after graduation."
"At Sherwood Heights, we combine academic rigour with personal attention, balancing traditional instruction with purposeful innovation. We emphasize mastery of core subjects through clear expectations and consistent daily practice, while integrating technology across the curriculum to build confidence and digital fluency. Our Careers-in-Focus and enrichment initiatives connect classroom learning to real-world applications, inspiring students to see purpose in their studies. Families consistently note that our blend of structure, enrichment, and warmth is what truly sets Sherwood Heights apart."
"St. John's-Ravenscourt School offers a unique public speaking and debating program that is engrained in the school across all grade levels. We feel that teaching students how to speak well provides them with skills for the future while at the same time building their confidence."
"At Sherwood Heights, our commitment to a strong academic foundation means we prioritize depth over breadth, focusing on the essentials—language, mathematics, science, and critical thinking—rather than following fleeting educational trends. This deliberate approach ensures that students build lasting knowledge and disciplined study habits. While our structured and rigorous environment may not suit families seeking a fully self-paced or alternative style of learning, our students thrive when they embrace high expectations, consistency, and personal accountability."

"Founded in 1989, Sherwood Heights began as a small, independent elementary school and has since grown into a thriving institution with two campuses serving students from Preschool to Grade 12. Over more than three decades, we have expanded our facilities, introduced new academic streams, and enriched our extracurricular programmes to support well-rounded student growth. Our high school facility features modern innovation labs, state-of-the-art science and art studios, and collaborative learning spaces that reflect our ongoing commitment to providing a forward-looking, dynamic education for every student."

"Students who thrive at Sherwood Heights are motivated learners who embrace challenge and structure. They approach their studies with curiosity, responsibility, and a genuine desire to achieve their personal best. Within our supportive and disciplined environment, they learn that effort, respect, and achievement go hand in hand. At Sherwood Heights, students value a culture where academic excellence is celebrated alongside creativity, leadership, and good citizenship—preparing them to succeed with confidence both in school and beyond."
"Students who get the most out of their time at SJR are driven to do their best academically while also balancing sports and co-curricular activities."
"Sherwood Heights offers a structured and academically focused environment that may not align with families seeking a highly flexible or alternative approach to education. Our programme is designed for students who respond well to clear expectations and steady academic challenge. While we provide individual attention and support, the pace may feel demanding for those who require extensive accommodations. Our priority is always each child’s success and well-being, and we work closely with families to ensure that Sherwood Heights is the right environment for their child to truly flourish."
"Families looking for a religiously based education will not find SJR to be a good fit. As a non-denominational school we do not have a religious focus and no religion is taught at the school. We encourage students to be themselves and share who they are."
"Families choose Sherwood Heights for its rigorous academics, individualized attention, and welcoming school environment that fosters meaningful connections among students and teachers. They value our proven results—graduates who consistently earn admission to competitive university programmes—and the personal care that defines everyday life at our school. With a strong reputation for academic excellence, dedicated teaching, and small class sizes, Sherwood Heights continues to attract families who seek a nurturing and achievement-oriented education for their children."
"When families consider SJR, they feel that the school provides a strong education for their child that pushes them to be their best. They see that academics are at the core of SJR while also providing a well-rounded breadth of opportunities including arts and athletics. Most importantly, families continue to tell us that they appreciate the open nature of the school, welcoming all people."
"Sherwood Heights is widely recognized within the community as one of Mississauga’s leading private schools, known for combining high academic standards with a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. Our reputation is built on exceptional student achievement, the professionalism and dedication of our staff, and the strong character of our students, who embody the school’s core values of integrity, effort, and kindness in all that they do."
"We are well-known for our strong academic standards and public speaking and debate. We often hear that our student's standout because of how they have learned to present themselves."
"Families are often pleasantly surprised by the warmth and personal connection that define life at Sherwood Heights. Behind every academic success is a dedicated teacher who notices the small details, offering encouragement, guidance, and mentorship along the way. This genuine focus on relationships—built on care, respect, and support—is one of the school’s greatest strengths, shaping an environment where students feel seen, valued, and inspired to do their best."
"What often goes unrecognized initially is the athletic and arts offerings and the multitude of opportunities for students to get involved throughout the school. Athletically, our school offers students a wide array of sports and many facilities to use including an arena on campus which transitions into an indoor turf in the spring/summer, a state of the art fitness center, and a double sized gym. Additionally, the arts program offers music, art, and drama in many capacities including a Rock Show, drama productions, and art clubs and events."
"Many new families are pleasantly surprised by the advanced level of study at Sherwood Heights, even in the early grades, and by how quickly students rise to meet those challenges with confidence. They also appreciate the wide range of opportunities that extend beyond the classroom, including clubs, robotics, music, athletics, and leadership activities, all of which help students develop a balanced set of skills and discover their individual strengths and interests."
"What families might find surprising about SJR is that there is a real community built amongst all families, students, teachers, and staff. Parents often comment once their child is enrolled at SJR, how much they feel a part of the school and welcomed.
Another aspect is the academic pursuit of all students. Families often comment they see a change in their child for the better, in their drive to succeed in school. The feeling of it's cool to be smart is definitely felt at SJR."
"In recent years, Sherwood Heights has enhanced every aspect of the student experience. Our high school facilities now feature modern innovation and science labs, dedicated art and music studios, and a bright, open atrium that inspires collaboration and creativity. We have modernized our technology infrastructure to ensure students learn in a secure and connected environment, while expanding our curriculum to include leadership development, French at all levels, and integrated computer and business studies. In addition, we continue to grow our extracurricular offerings, helping students discover their passions, build teamwork skills, and develop strong character."
"The arena on campus underwent a major renovation and update over the past two years. This major improvement to the facility also allowed us to be able to use the arena in the spring and summer as an indoor turf."
"Looking ahead, Sherwood Heights will continue to expand its facilities and programmes to meet the evolving needs of students. We plan to introduce advanced academic pathways, strengthen partnerships with universities and community organizations, and integrate new technologies that promote creative, critical, and collaborative learning. As we grow, our mission remains the same—to prepare students for success in university and beyond, guided by the enduring values of confidence, knowledge, and excellence that define the Sherwood Heights experience."
"Over the course of this year, we are re-looking at our vision, mission, and values to align them with who we are as a school today. This update will clarify to everyone in our community who we are and drive us forward for the future."
I am forever bursting with gratification over what our students and faculty are able to achieve. The multitude of accomplishments are varied and far-reaching, and make our school environment exciting, rewarding, engaging, and satisfying. We are relentlessly working towards one theme, and that is ‘Making It Happen’. Students ‘make it happen’ as they are fully engaged in a wonderful array of exhilarating events, clubs, competitions, tournaments, festivals, and fairs. Guided by their teachers, students are fully immersed in their pursuit to do their best and learn from their experiences. The children participate in a wide array of stimulating activities which include the Science Fairs, Math Competitions, Public Speaking Competitions, Music Festivals, Spelling Bees, Shows, Sports Tournaments, and much more. Also, the clubs are a big hit with the students and serve to broaden their horizons. From the Leadership Club to the Chess Champions Club, students stir in the hallways with anticipation and excitement. The activities are many and students from every section of the school participate in large numbers and with tremendous success. It is truly amazing. Thank you to our faculty who are an essential element in the ‘making it happen’ theme. Our teachers provide wise guidance as they nurture, support, and motivate our students. They have made a name for themselves as very special committed individuals with great qualities and stamina! As time races ahead, year after year, “Together, We Make It Happen!”

In the meantime, this website provides a wealth of information about life at SJR, and I hope it captures your imagination.
Liberal Arts
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.
Liberal Arts curricula share with traditional programs their emphasis on core knowledge-acquisition, but tend to borrow more best practices from the progressive approach. A Liberal Arts program might still feature group work and projects, for example, contrary to the more singular emphasis on tests and essays at a Traditional program.

Sherwood Heights follows an enriched and well-rounded curriculum for students from Kindergarten to Grade 12. The comprehensive curriculum emphasizes the basic subjects of language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, French, and computers; and addresses the importance of music, the arts, and physical fitness.
Junior School (K - Grade 2) follows a play-based approach and Grades 3 to Grade 12 follow a balanced and inquiry-based approach to learning.

A traditional, comprehensive, challenging and modernized math programme.
The mathematics courses at SJR cover the content of the corresponding provincial courses, but include additional material and cover most topics in greater depth. We have three clearly held objectives: 1) Students should have a thorough mastery of basic skills. This is considered essential for success in higher mathematics and mathematics related courses. 2) Students should have an excellent understanding of ideas and concepts. It is important that they understand how various ideas are interrelated, and that they develop an intuitive feeling for the concepts that are being used. Memorizing how to solve a vast collection of “type problems” is not enough. 3) Students should be able to apply their skills and concepts to solve problems that they have not seen before. There is a strong emphasis on problem-solving at all levels, and there are a variety of mathematics competitions that all students can participate in each year.

Students in Grades 9 through 12 require a scientific calculator for their Mathematics courses. Students in Grades 11 and 12 are encouraged to use a graphing calculator (a must for those taking AP courses) and the TI-84 Plus graphing calculator is preferred.
Balanced Literacy
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.
Balanced reading programs are typically Whole Language programs with supplementary phonics training. This training might be incidental, or it might take the form of mini-lessons.
The kindergarten programme is academic based, well balanced, comprehensive and instills a love of learning.
Language Arts instruction at St. John’s-Ravenscourt’s Junior School assists students to become adept, confident, fluent and creative communicators, who appreciate the power, usefulness and beauty of language. It is fundamentally important for students to become confident users of language and versatile thinkers, both in school and out.
Equal balance
Programs that balance systematic and process approaches equally likely have an emphasis on giving young students ample opportunities to write, while providing supplementary class-wide instruction in grammar, parts of sentences, and various writing strategies.
Programs that balance systematic and process approaches equally likely have an emphasis on giving young students ample opportunities to write, while providing supplementary class-wide instruction in grammar, parts of sentences, and various writing strategies.
Phonics, handwriting, spelling, grammar concepts, reading and reading comprehension are important components of our writing programme.
As students progress through school, their instruction increasingly enables them to acquire as many language conventions as possible. This acquisition cannot be left to time and chance. Given the interrelationships among the language arts, there is a need for fully integrated instruction characterized by coherence and continuity.
Inquiry
Science programs that balance expository and inquiry learning equally will likely have an equal blend of tests and experiments; direct, textbook-based instruction and student-centred projects.
Inquiry-based science emphasizes teaching science as a way of thinking or practice, and therefore tries to get students “doing” science as much as possible -- and not just “learning” it. Students still learn foundational scientific ideas and content (and build on this knowledge progressively); however, relative to expository science instruction, inquiry-based programs have students spend more time developing and executing their own experiments (empirical and theoretical). Students are frequently challenged to develop critical and scientific-thinking skills by developing their own well-reasoned hypothesis and finding ways to test those hypotheses. Projects and experiments are emphasized over textbook learning. Skills are emphasized over breadth of knowledge.
Rigorous science programme.
Emphasis is on understanding concepts and applying these in many different situations. For each topic, students begin with simple problems, move on to more complicated ones that involve several topics and finally they are expected to solve problems involving previously unseen situations.

In traditional literature programs students focus on decoding the mechanics of texts: plot, characterization, and themes. These texts tend to include a balance of contemporary and “classic” literature. When studying a past work, students investigate its historical context -- but only insofar as this adds understanding to the work itself. Past works are therefore studied “on their own terms”, and not merely as historical artifacts to be deconstructed: traditional literature programs are firmly rooted in the humanities, and carry the belief that great literature can reveal fundamental and universal truths about the human condition. These programs emphasize class discussions and critical essay writing, and aim to develop in students critical thinking, communication skills, and a cultivated taste and ethos.
These literature programs draw in equal measure from “Traditional” and “Social Justice” programs.
Reading and reading comprehension, novel studies and various literature programmes are all offered.
The goal of the English program is to produce graduates who can speak and listen effectively, analyze literature with sophistication, write with forcefulness and precision, read with comprehension and insight and apply their skills with creativity. To these ends, a sequential program—focused on language and literature—has been devised to challenge students in English on a variety of levels.

Expanding Communities
Usually focused on teaching history and geography at an early age, the core knowledge approach uses story, drama, reading, and discussion to teach about significant people, places, and events. Breadth of content and knowledge is emphasized. The curriculum is often organized according to the underlying logic of the content: history might be taught sequentially, for example (as students move through the grades).
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.
Teaching history and geography from the beginning with an international approach from a Canadian perspective.
The core concept of citizenship provides a focus for Social Studies learning across the Junior School grades. Social studies addresses various aspects of citizenship: - Role of Citizenship in Social Studies - Rationale for Citizenship Education - Active Democratic Citizenship in Canada - Canadian Citizenship for the Future - Citizenship in the Global Context - Environmental Citizenship

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.
Effort is made to integrate the development of digital literacy through the curriculum. However, this is not a dominant focus.

Learning the rules of the game and good sportsmanship are important. House league teams, sports teams, intramural sports.
The vision of the program is to have all SJR students living physically active and healthy lifestyles. The program emphasizes physical, emotional and mental well-being, as well as life-long fitness.
Academic
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.

The kindergarten programme is academic based, well balanced, comprehensive and instills a love of learning. Students are introduced to the fundamentals of reading, writing, mathematics, social science and French. Students will also expand their language skills through conversation, word activities, stories, audio and visual material, and computer software. Gross and fine motor skills and co-ordination are developed through physical and educational activities and the use of paints, crayons, clay, sand and water. Creative expression is encouraged through arts & crafts, music, and drama.
The overall approach to our Kindergarten program is both Academic and Play-based. We follow the Manitoba curriculum and expand on the learning through play-based opportunities.
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.
Enriched as well as extra-help material is available to all students to meet their individual needs.
SJR offers an Advanced Math program which allows for a streamed approach.
Rigorous
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”.
