The Junior School curriculum is based on a mastery approach to education. Fundamentals and concepts are taught repeatedly so the student has a strong understanding of the material before moving on.

Core subjects include Math, Language, Science & Technology, Social Studies, French, Personal Development, Health & Physical Education, Music, and Visual Art.

Concepts are broken down into manageable increments that reinforce each other, and prepare the student for more complex material. The presentation and dissemination of concepts takes place throughout the entire academic year, and between grades and subject areas, so that the concepts remain fresh.

The work, both individual and class, is reviewed and corrected on a daily basis so that each student has the opportunity to learn and improve incrementally while the material is top-of- mind. Goals, expectations and results are logged daily in each student’s journal so that staff, student and parents are on the same page.

Students are also required to interact socially in the classroom, participate in discussions and collaborate.

To learn more about the core curriculum in each subject area, we encourage you to arrange a tour.
