Student Stories

George D.

George joined the school when he was 9 years old. Getting personalized attention allowed him to skip several grades through-out elementary and middle-school, and got him early approval into our high school program. We proudly saw him graduate this year with top-grades and acceptance to the University of Toronto for his first-choice program. He will begin in September at the age of 16, and he is on track to achieve his goal of becoming a lawyer in the near future.

Max P.

Max is only 15 years old, but he has already completed most of his Grade 12 University classes. Public school classes were not challenging enough for him and he did poorly because he found them boring. However, he is now being challenged by University level problems in chemistry, biology and math, which keep him engaged in the classroom. He plans to complete the remaining courses next year and re-do a couple. This will allow him to improve his average from the high 80s to the high 90s, and get him a scholarship when he goes to University the following year.

Ezra W.

Ezra is a gifted student who has two comes from a well-educated background. At 14 years old, he already has his pilot certification and has sold some of his photography for an exhibition in an art gallery.
