Elementary & Junior High Program
St-Laurent Academy Elementary & Junior High offers programs from JK – Grade 8 in both French & English, in classes no larger than 15 students.
What distinguishes us from other schools are our expert subject teachers, small class sizes, and Multiple Intelligences approach. In a small class room environment, St-Laurent Academy students learn to reflect on their own strengths and weaknesses, work collaboratively with others who are similar to and different from themselves, and to be responsible and independent in their studies.
We provide a quality curriculum to students with wide ranging abilities and interests. Our staff are committed, widely traveled, environmentally conscious and dedicated professionals who strive to provide students with a well-rounded education. Although we utilize the Ontario Curriculum as a base, the programs are enriched based on the background of the teacher, class interests and international influences. We are proud that our students develop a positive attitude towards becoming life-long learners.
Our school uses a multi-sensory approach to teaching that caters to each individual's learning style. Dedicated, passionate specialist teachers provide an accommodating yet challenging environment, which fosters self-confidence, mutual respect and independence. At our school, lessons extend beyond the classroom; we engage the curiosity of each student and inculcate a life-long love of learning. Students are encouraged to reach their potential and to become well-balanced, environmentally conscious citizens, who will play a vital role in the future.
It is our goal for students to graduate from St-Laurent Academy Elementary & Junior High with:
- a clear sense of themselves as learners
- a clear sense of their talents and the skills to pursue them
- a sense of responsibility for and independence in their studies
- a respect and admiration for diversity in talents, abilities, cultures and points of view
