“Everyone we met in the Bayview Glen community emphasized that it’s a place where all types of students can find a sense of belonging.”
“Student well-being–academic, social, and emotional–is paramount at Bayview Glen. There are always multiple pairs of eyes on every student, ensuring they’re doing all right and getting them the support they need if they aren’t.”
“Bayview Glen is undoubtedly a school that nurtures and values high academic achievement, yet students can always access extra help, whether on an ongoing or time-limited basis.”
Read The Our Kids Review of Bayview Glen
Villanova was founded in 1999 on property that is home to the Mary Lake Augustinian Monastery. Today the school operates independent of the order, in terms of finances and leadership, though shares the values of service and charity. While the school is understandably a draw for families looking for a school delivering the curriculum through a Catholic lens, it also attracts those from surrounding communities who, apart from religious observance, share those foundational values. The school is relatively young, though has established a strong academic and athletic reputation in a short time. The school also has set standards for online communication, and the use of technology in instruction and assessment. The ideal student is one able to thrive in a challenging, active student environment.
View full reportIt's a big world out there, with lots of big ideas in it, and Bayview Glen prides itself on offering students an introduction to all its breadth and complexity. The school is part of the Round Square network of schools, which reflects that ambition; the program includes cross-curricular links to concepts of community, self-reliance, and entrepreneurialism. For some students, it can be a lot, perhaps especially for those within the younger grades—the school admits students from preschool through to grade 12. A broad range of curricular and co-curricular activities back up the school's promise to deliver the world: Mandarin classes, a model United Nations program, as well as a range of arts and athletics. While learner support is provided, the ideal student is one who is able to thrive in an intellectually diverse, academically challenging environment.

Purposeful Life. Better World," and is grounded in the core values of compassion, curiosity, and courage.

"Bayview Glen distinguishes itself through a long‑view educational continuum, a global perspective, and an intentional focus on experiential learning. As members of Round Square, we embed our values of leadership, service, democracy, environmental stewardship, and internationalism into daily school life. This reflects our belief that students learn best when values are experienced, not just taught.
Academic enrichment is supported through Advanced Placement, allowing students to explore subjects in greater depth while maintaining balance across a broad and engaging school experience. Learning beyond the classroom is a core element of a Bayview Glen education and includes international travel opportunities, outdoor education, philanthropy initiatives, and real‑world problem‑solving opportunities. Together, these experiences reflect our commitment to developing independent thinkers and compassionate leaders prepared to navigate complexity and change."

"Several key moments have shaped Bayview Glen into the relationship-driven, future-focused school it is today. Founded in 1962 by Lois Doreen Hopkins as a nursery school and day camp, it was built on the belief that children learn best when they are deeply known, nurtured, and supported as individuals. This philosophy continues to guide its commitment to whole-child development.
In the 1980s and 1990s, Bayview Glen expanded into a full elementary and secondary program, graduating its first class in 1991 and establishing a complete academic pathway while maintaining a close-knit community. The opening of the Upper School campus in 2000 strengthened its university-preparatory focus and global outlook. Today, a transformational new build—featuring C-STEM and innovation spaces, an aquatics facility, and flexible learning environments—reflects its continued investment in innovation, wellbeing, and community."

"Bayview Glen is well suited to students who benefit from a thoughtful balance of structure and personal attention and who are motivated to engage fully in academics while also exploring the arts, athletics, and leadership opportunities available to them. Students who thrive in a diverse, co‑educational environment where relationships and a strong sense of community are central to the learning experience often find Bayview Glen a strong fit.
While many families value the continuity of progressing through the school over time, Bayview Glen also welcomes students at various entry points. The School is intentional about ensuring that new students are known, supported, and quickly integrated into the life of the community. As a result, Bayview Glen appeals both to families seeking long term consistency and to those joining later who are looking for a connected, values aligned environment in which their child can thrive."

"Bayview Glen is intentionally designed for families who value a co-educational environment where children are known well, supported closely, and cared for as whole individuals. Our approach places strong emphasis on wellbeing, relationships, and connection, with educators and staff actively involved in students’ academic, social, and emotional development.
The school experience is personal, relational, and thoughtfully guided rather than distant or impersonal. Families who are seeking a hands off or highly anonymous educational model may find this approach does not align with their expectations or educational priorities."

"Community sits at the heart of the Bayview Glen experience, and is one of the primary reasons families choose the School. Parents are drawn to an environment where their children are academically challenged while also being genuinely known and supported within caring and connected community.
Families frequently highlight close relationships with educators, individualized attention, and a balanced approach that integrates academics, wellbeing, and co‑curricular opportunities into daily life. Alumni often echo these sentiments, reflecting on how the supportive community shaped their confidence, character, and sense of purpose.

"Bayview Glen is widely viewed as a well-established and values driven independent school that combines strong academic preparation with a deep commitment to the whole child. The School is associated with balance, offering rigorous pathways to post-secondary studies alongside meaningful opportunities in the arts, athletics, leadership, and experiential learning.
Our Toddler (age 2) through Grade 12 continuum is seen as a source of stability and continuity, while our diverse, co-educational environment reflects a culture that is inclusive and grounded in real world preparation. Publicly, Bayview Glen is recognized not only for consistently strong post-secondary outcomes, but also for the way students are supported, and grow with confidence, character, and purpose."

"An underappreciated strength of Bayview Glen is the depth of continuity within the school community. As a Toddler (age 2) through Grade 12 school, many students begin in the early years and graduate as lifers having spent more than a decade within one consistent learning culture, shaped by shared values, common language, and enduring relationships.
This continuity is further strengthened by remarkable faculty and staff retention, with many educators having taught at Bayview Glen for ten plus years. The presence of long-tenured teachers provides stability, institutional knowledge, and deep understanding of students’ developmental journeys, contributing to a learning environment that is both grounded and responsive."

"Families are often surprised by how intentionally Bayview Glen’s founding philosophy continues to shape the School today. Established in 1962 with the belief that every child is precious, Bayview Glen remains deeply committed to nurturing strong relationships and knowing students as individuals.
Despite its size and scope, educators are highly accessible and deeply engaged in each child’s growth. Learning experiences are thoughtfully crafted, supports are carefully aligned to students’ needs, and students are encouraged to grow with confidence, curiosity, and a strong sense of responsibility to others."

This addition includes a C‑STEM and Innovation Lab, an indoor aquatics facility featuring a 5-lane pool, a new gymnasium, outdoor discovery learning areas, a dedicated Health Centre, and flexible environments that support learning, movement, and collaboration. Together with continued programme enhancements, these improvements nurture the while child and allow Bayview Glen to better serve students today while preparing them for an ever-changing world."

Traditional
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.

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.

Reggio Emilia
Reggio Emilia programs aim to develop curiosity and problem-solving skills through the liberal use of “projects”, (as opposed to “activities” or “lessons”). Teachers design projects for children around their demonstrated interests. Projects can be geared to an individual student, a small group of students, or the class as a whole. Projects can last from a few days to the whole year. Art is strongly emphasized and is typically incorporated into every project. Teachers actively participate in projects alongside students, rather than sitting back and observing. A high degree of parent involvement is also encouraged, particularly when forming curriculums and project plans (which happens throughout the academic year).
If you want to learn more about Reggio Emilia education, check out our comprehensive guide.
Bayview Glen offers a balanced programme starting at age two years.

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”.

Students wishing to study at Bayview Glen are asked to submit a completed application form, along with a copy of their birth certificate, immunization records, a recent school report, a photo and an application fee of $100. Admission to the school is based upon a review of past school reports, an interview or class visit, entrance testing and space availability. The Admissions Office is available to answer your questions, provide you with more information, and arrange for you to visit the school. For more information, please contact Judy Maxwell, Director of Admissions, at 416.443.1030 or [email protected].
The Admissions team reviews a variety of information to determine the preparedness of each applicant to succeed in the university-preparatory program and co-curricular offerings of the School. Admission to Villanova College is competitive and decisions are based on the following:
Our admission process helps applicants and their parents become more familiar with Bayview Glen, its programmes and our educational philosophy. You begin by submitting a detailed application form. Then, students will visit the school to experience life in class, and will complete an entrance assessment. Once the admissions process is complete, students are notified in writing each March regarding their application status. Please visit the Admissions section of the Bayview Glen school website (www.bayviewglen.ca/admissions) for further details.
