The name sounds generic, and, historically at least, it was. In 1915 Margaret Gascoigne began her school—there were just six students that year—in the study of her home. In 1922 the school moved to a permanent location on Seaforth where it remained for close to 40 years until it moved to its present one in 1960. (The whole story is told and illustrated in the aptly titled, No Ordinary School: The Study 1915-2015, published to mark the school’s centennial.)
In a sense, Gascoigne provided the same thing then that the school does now: a bilingual education for girls. Though, yes, that alone doesn’t present the half of it. Through the years The Study sought to chart its own path, while at the same time creating a path for the girls that attended. They weren’t being educated to be shrinking violets, but rather to find their voices and, to some extent, transcend the times and circumstances that they were living within. And, they did, with alumnae prominent in fields that run the breadth of Canadian life. That tradition of forthright leaders and students certainly remains today. Part of the charm of the school is that tradition, one that is apparent throughout the school. The school may be a century old, but the program remains at the cutting edge of education. The ideal student is one who can rise to the challenges that the school presents.
Elevate Learning Centre provides an opportunity for students with unique needs to thrive in a supportive environment. With programming designed specifically for diverse learners, students receive small group instruction, daily social and emotional learning, and structured literacy. Elevate believes all students can thrive when supported in the right way. Its programming focuses on literacy, numeracy, executive functioning, and socio-emotional skills, enabling students to learn strategies to self-regulate independently. A high educator-to-student ratio means students receive the support they need to thrive and build their academic and social confidence.

Progressive
Information not available
Progressive (sometimes called "in- quiry-based") curricula attempt to place children's interests and ideas at the heart of the learning experience. Instead of lessons being driven by predetermined pathways, progressive curricula are often "emergent", with learning activities shaped by students' questions about the world. Instead of starting with academic concepts and then tying it to everyday experience, progressive methods begin with everyday experience and work back to an academic lesson. Teachers provide materials, experiences, tools and resources to help students investigate a topic or issue. Students are encouraged to explore, reflect on their findings, and discuss answers or solutions.

The Study’s bilingual programme begins in Kindergarten. Students have two homeroom teachers and spend approximately half the day in English and the other half in French. The goal is to establish fluency and accuracy in both languages by offering mother tongue programmes in both English and French. The curriculum is organized into themes and subjects are interrelated through learning activities with a central focus of interest. Learning situations are process-oriented with the intention of encouraging the children to explore, experiment, solve problems and absorb new ideas and concepts. Computer technology is widely integrated at all levels through the use of class sets of laptops and/or iPads. In the Senior School, students follow an enriched programme of studies. At each grade level, students take enriched French language courses and are offered at least two other subjects in French. A compulsory third language option (Mandarin or Spanish) is also a curriculum requirement for grades 7 and 8. Each student is provided with her own laptop to take advantage of technological resources to enrich her learning.
Elevate follows a structured literacy approach toward reading using multi-sensory, explicit evidence-based approaches to support the specific needs of students with diverse learning needs. Elevate’s numeracy programming follows the Ontario curriculum’s overall expectations with the primary focus of lessening any gaps in each student’s learning. Our SEL program focuses on developing social-emotional skills while building on themes of self-awareness, friendship, respect, open-mindedness, and community. Students are explicitly taught the ‘hidden rules’ of social interactions, self-regulation tools and strategies. Students are supported to work through any social and emotional challenges that arise throughout the day by caring staff who see each interaction as a learning opportunity. Key topics are explored clearly and explicitly, with lessons and activities differentiated for each student’s individual level. All learning is scaffolded so students do not become overwhelmed and can feel confident in their ability to create.
Equal Balance
These math programs feature an equal balance of “Traditional” and “Discovery” methods.
Elevate’s programming follows the Ontario curriculum’s overall expectations in mathematics focusing first on numeracy and number sense, with the primary focus of lessening any gaps in each student’s learning. Key topics are explored clearly and explicitly, with lessons and activities differentiated for each student’s individual level. All learning in math builds on earlier concepts. If students do not have a strong base in addition, they will struggle with subtraction. If they do not understand equal groups, they will not be able to understand multiplication and division. We help students to master the foundational skills that they will need to unlock higher levels of math in high-school and beyond.
Multi-Sensory Math Jump Math Ontario Curriculum spiralized to lessen learning gaps and build foundational skills
Students are encouraged to use learning tools and manipulatives.
Phonics-intensive
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.
Elevate follows a structured literacy approach toward reading and reading comprehension, using multi-sensory, explicit evidence based approaches to support the specific needs of students with diverse learning needs. Many of our educators are trained in the Orton-Gillingham approach focusing on direct, explicit, multisensory, structured, sequential, diagnostic, and prescriptive way to teach literacy when reading, writing, and spelling does not come easily to individuals, such as those with dyslexia. We also use Wilson and UFLI to assist in our reading lessons.
DIBELS Testing: This school periodically uses DIBELS testing to assess reading progress.
We monitor progress using a variety of tools including Dibels and Woodcock Johnson standardized assessments.
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.
Students develop their ability to compose writing by building their skills over time. All learning is scaffolded so students do not become overwhelmed and can feel confident in their ability to create. Each of these approaches is evidence-based and has been proven to help neurodiverse learners to become strong, confident readers and writers. We also recognize that many of our students come to us with difficulty with both printing and spelling words. We believe that spelling and reading are closely connected and learning how to spell words accurately and automatically helps students to read fluently. During their time with us, students will learn: Cursive writing Printing Common spelling conventions and patterns to “decode” the language Paragraph composition Grammar conventions Proofreading
Inquiry
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.
Science is taught in the afternoon during our FlexBlock. Topics are generated from the Ontario Curriculum and overall expectations are covered. We learn through inquiry and experimental learning, using hands-on experiments and student-guided investigation. With multiple grades, we split students into smaller groups so that they are following their own curriculum expectations. We also group together similar concepts so that students can work together across grades collaboratively.

Equal Balance
These literature programs draw in equal measure from “Traditional” and “Social Justice” programs.
We incorporate both of these approaches. It is so vital for students to be able to decode and understand the purpose of a text for their reading comprehension and written composition. Many of our students struggle with written expression and our goal is to help them identify written elements and apply them to their own work. However, we want our students to think critically about what they're reading and to form their own opinions. We want our students to feel competent and confident taking on literature.

Expanding Communities
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.
Social Studies is taught in the afternoon during our FlexBlock. Topics are generated from the Ontario Curriculum and overall expectations are covered. Imagine your child is motivated to learn, not just for marks, but for the love of learning. Authentic learning ignites student interest and joy in learning by connecting what is taught in the classroom to real-world issues, problems, and applications. “Learn by doing” is the core of the Elevate as students practice foundational skills, whether they are engaging in authentic activities similar to a scientist, an artist, an engineer, or a writer. Future-ready skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, teamwork, observation, asking questions, and note-taking are consistently reinforced during authentic learning.
Pragmatism
Pragmatism in the humanities and social sciences emphasizes making learning relevant to students’ present-day experience. Assignments tend to centre around projects and tasks rather than argumentative essays; these projects will often have a “real-world” application or relevance. There might be more of a social justice component to a pragmatic program, though that isn’t always the case. Subjects like history and philosophy are still covered/offered, but they play a less prominent role in the overall program than in the case of perennialism. The social sciences (contemporary geography, sociology, psychology, etc), meanwhile, might play a more prominent role in pragmatic programs. The key goals are to make learning progressive and relevant, while teaching students real-life skills and critical thinking.
One of the best ways to help students learn is to make meaningful connections to real-world experiences. This can help them to contextualize what they've learned and then apply the learning in their own way.

Light integration
Computers are used in the classroom from time to time, but integrating technology into everything students do is not a dominant focus. Digital literacy is understood to be a legitimate skill in the 21st century, but not one that should distract from teaching the subject at hand, or more fundamental skills and literacies. The idea is today’s students, being “digital natives”, are likely exposed to computers and new media enough outside the classroom: the role of the school, rather, should be to develop competencies that may otherwise get missed.

Play-based programs are the most common type of preschool and Kindergarten, and are founded on the belief young children learn best through play. Largely open-ended and minimally structured, play-based programs aim to develop social skills and a love of attending school. “Pre-academic” skills are taught, but in a more indirect way than at, say, an Academic program: through children playing in different “stations” set up around the classroom, which children choose on their own volition. Stations often contain an indirect lesson or developmental goal. Play-based classrooms are highly social and active.

Student-paced
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).
The main curriculum pace is non-standardized and is HIGHLY responsive to the pacing of individual students, (via differentiated instruction, differentiated assessment, etc). In theory, some students outpace the default/normalized curriculum, while others spend periods "behind schedule" if they need the extra time.
At Elevate, we use evidence-based practices to meet our students needs, help them make gains where they struggle, to empower them to feel confident and excited about their learning again. We work with each child’s strengths and identify areas for targeted support documented in an individualized Success Plan.
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.
At Elevate Learning Centre, we believe that ALL students can thrive and succeed when they are supported in the right way. Our program was created to specifically support students with diverse learning needs. Our team of experienced and passionate educators know the students very well. Student strengths and areas for growth are considered for every small group lesson. We use intense remediation and direct instruction in our morning literacy and numeracy classes to solidify foundational skills and practice these skills in our Flex Block courses.
"We intentionally avoid all forms of public distinction between students in terms of academic performance."
Balanced
Equal emphasis is placed on a balance of priorities: intellectual, emotional, social and physical cultivation.
Emotional
The goal is to cultivate "emotionally intelligent and confident individuals, capable of leading both themselves and others."
Intellectual
The goal is to cultivate "academically strong, creative and critical thinkers, capable of exercising rationality, apprehending truth, and making aesthetic distinctions."
Social
The goal is to cultivate "socially aware and active citizens, motivated to change the world (or their community) for the better."
Our students are explicitly taught social emotional learning daily focusing on their personal strengths. We want our students to feel comfortable with themselves and their unique abilities. We teach our students how to make sense of their own and others' thoughts, feelings, and intentions in context to the situations. Respect of self, others and property is explicitly taught and kindness and understanding the perspective of others make a difference. Having a growth mindset is key to learning and Elevate Learning Centre supports students as they learn in this journey.

The Study wants to meet girls who want to become great women.
At Elevate, we believe that all students can thrive and succeed when they are supported in a right way. Our learning program is created to specifically support the unique needs of students with multiple exceptionalities that may not have been able to succeed in other learning environments. Your student does not to have an official diagnosis to attend Elevate.
4 Steps to APPLY to The Study
Once parents have applied online, a meeting will be arranged with school administration. Parents and students are invited to tour the school and a three-day trial is offered (at no cost).
If the child has medical or psychoeducational assessment, we would ask to see this documentation. An official diagnosis is not required to attend Elevate Learning Centre.
