"The Toronto Prep School is completely dedicated to providing a superior academic program for the children of parents who value the importance of knowledge, technology, individuality, responsibility, and integrity in a safe, nurturing, and highly motivated environment. Our mission is to prepare our students by equipping them with the academic tools and life skills needed to enter and succeed not only at the post-secondary school level, but ultimately, in their chosen career path. Given the pace of technological change and the growth of information technologies in all aspects of our lives, it is crucial that students gain mastery over these tools. We are committed to developing students who are confident and responsible and exhibit the values necessary to become effective communicators, informed and productive thinkers, self-directed learners, collaborative workers, and skilled information processors and problem solvers. As educators we will develop the facility for learning and foster the motivation for students to continue to learn after their formal school years. We will challenge each student to maximize his or her effort and in so doing realize their potential. The development of a sound work ethic and effective organizational and study skills will be stressed."
"Our people, atmosphere, and academic ethos differentiate TPS from other schools. While this sounds like an empty platitude, it is anything but. We believe that a school can be academically rigorous, but we also believe that teachers and administration should be approachable and create a comfortable environment. Growth does indeed occur when we are uncomfortable, but trust needs to be established before this growth exists."
"At TPS we strive not to trade off values or features, but to add on. We believe that a school should be keep up with the times but not forgo traditional academic and social values. Our foundation remains strong academically, while developing emotional well being for our students. We take a human first approach at TPS by providing our students with strategies to navigate our new digital world. The psychological and academic well being of our students begins with understanding, structure, direction and discipline."
"A defining turning point in Toronto Prep School’s history is its current campus expansion and planned addition of elementary grades in 2027. Since its founding in 2009, TPS has built its identity around academic excellence, small class sizes, and personalized learning. The expansion represents the next evolution of that vision.
The new campus will add modern learning spaces, athletics and arts facilities, innovation labs, and outdoor areas designed to support a more dynamic student experience. Just as importantly, the introduction of elementary grades will transform TPS from a secondary-focused school into a full K–12 educational journey.
This milestone reflects the school’s long-term commitment to growth, continuity, and community. Rather than changing the TPS identity, the expansion strengthens it — allowing the school to extend its values of individualized support, strong relationships, and future-focused learning to students at every stage of their education."
"At Toronto Prep School we value the character of the child as much as that child's academic ability. We look for students who have a true desire to succeed and would like the opportunity and environment to do so. Students who respect themselves, their families, their peers and their teachers make great candidates for our school."
"At Toronto Prep School, we believe that children need discipline, direction and structure. Our students receive the personalized attention needed to help develop both their characters and academic ability. We believe it takes a village to raise a child, therefore we get involved and work closely with our students and their parents."
"According to students and parents who have chosen TPS as their school, it seems personal attention, accountability, and academic flexibility are the deciding factors. Our semestered system, with a plethora of elective courses, allows students to find their passion and build a foundation upon which to launch their post-secondary journey. When students are provided with academic options and have the ability to choose a number of their classes, it makes for a better learning environment."
"We are well known primarily for our high academic standards and our expertise in the instruction of executive functioning skills."
"The most important aspect of TPS is its reliance and insistence on the importance of family. From admissions, through matriculation, and capstoned by graduation, a given student’s personal family blends with TPS’s educational family. By this, we mean that it is essential for the morals, values, and ethics of prospective families to meld with those of TPS. Academic integrity, familial gratitude, and respect for oneself and others are the hallmarks of TPS."
"Once families enter our campus, they are typically surprised by the breadth of our physical location. In addition to our 33 traditional classrooms, TPS bolsters a professional grade music recording studio, a 100 seat mainstage auditorium, a fully equipped, 2000 sq. ft. fitness studio, a wellness centre, and the list goes on."
"At Toronto Prep School we are always looking to improve our campus, and to upgrade the school experience for our families. We are excited to introduce Steve’s Corner, a brand-new lounge on campus designed as a welcoming space for students and staff to connect, relax and fun together.
The lounge features two golf simulators, table tennis, shuffleboard, foosball, bubble hockey, video games, and much much more. It is the perfect place to take a break, enjoy friendly competition, or simply unwind with peers.
Visitors can also explore our growing collection of sports memorabilia, celebrating the spirit of play and community.
Steve’s Corner is named in honour of our cofounder, Steve Tsimikalis, whose vision and passion continue to inspire our school. This space reflects his commitment to building a vibrant and connected campus life."
"Toronto Prep School is continually looking to improve in all areas. Academically, we have added new Technology, and Computer Science courses. We have developed an emotional well being curriculum which we have incorporated in our classes on a weekly basis. We will continue to grow in this area because we believe that the emotional maturity of children is paramount for their success."
