The St. Lawrence Christian Academy opened it's doors to students and staff on September 10, 2007. Established by parents and teachers, this independent elementary day school is focused on academic excellence delivered with Christian values. We offer classes from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 8.
At our school, learning is something everyone
loves to do. It is the norm rather than
the exception to hear happy kids talking about how much they like school. We think this can be attributed to three
things: small class sizes, exceptional
teachers and enthusiastic parents. Academic excellence extends beyond simply attaining the Ontario curriculum requirements. Additional programs ensure that all students are challenged and have a chance to learn the fundamentals.
At the St. Lawrence Christian Academy, parents and teachers work together to make
our school excellent and to help our students reach for the stars.
Arrowsmith
The St. Lawrence Christian Academy is the only school in Eastern Ontario offering the Arrowsmith program. This unique and highly successful program was designed by Barbara Arrowsmith-Young for students of average or above average intelligence with various learning disabilities. The goal of Arrowsmith is to strengthen students' learning capacities. The cognitive exercises that are the foundation of the Arrowsmith program may be thought of as a type of "therapy for the brain". This program has been in existence for almost 30 years. Students (and parents of students) who have participated in the program have described it as life altering.
