  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.

  THETFORD ACADEMY

  "Our location may be one of the most underrated aspects of our school. The phrase ‘best of both worlds’ applies; no one leaves without exclaiming over the beauty of our natural landscape. Our campus sits at the edge of an idyllic village, surrounded by farmland and forests. Mountains beckon in the distance, and one of the best cross-country courses in New England graces our backyard. All this, and we’re still just 3 minutes from the highway, 2.5 hours to Boston, and 3 hours by car to Montréal."
