can stay sharp, and gain an edge

SAFE AND SECURE
LIVING
ENVIRONMENT
Trust in the warm, reassuring
and rewarding setting we create
- Our teachers use an organizational approach that places students’ needs at the heart of our programs;
- Students are accompanied and supported by an assigned teacher and have a fixed homeroom;
- Reduction of the number of participants in the 1st cycle of secondary school, integrating subjects (French / ECR, history / geography, etc.);
- A reassuring environment (secure access, 120 active cameras, etc.);
- Excellent communication between parents, teachers, educators and the school principal to ensure the success and growth of the student (e.g.multi-platform communication);
- Mandatory permission card to leave school grounds (parental consent required) for students of the secondary cycle 1;
- We loop the students in a membership group for 2 years under the care of the same teacher (with exceptions) to which we then attach a specific structure (educator-direction).
