- We strengthen their character through regular religious instruction, encourage respect for the world around us and develop a deep sense of community.
Cornerstone Secondary Department:
Cornerstone Montessori Prep School, Toronto provides a positive and supportive environment where students challenge themselves, work hard, respect one another and strive to be the best they can.
High School Organization:
Cornerstone, as a non semester school, is organized into three terms with Term One from September to November, Term Two from December to February and Term Three from March to June. All three terms will include comprehensive tests with additional culminating activities to be assessed in the third term. Timetables for the classes are set up to reflect the same class schedule for the whole school year and do not rotate with the terms.
Our term examinations (Cumulative Basic Academic tests) are written three times a year and supplemented by weekly testing and review sessions. The report card is discussed at regular parent/teacher interviews to keep you in close touch with your child’s progress.
Rationale for Course Description:
Each course description includes a statement of Ministry guidelines and requirements, plus any relevant additional information about the philosophy and specific applications for Cornerstone Montessori Prep School.
Requirements for Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD):
There is a complete academic course of studies provided for the senior school department, however, since we operate on the Montessori principle of combined classes, there will be some courses that will only be offered every other year. Students who follow through with our four year academic program will graduate with all courses required for the OSSD and will include courses directed towards an appropriate post secondary institution. Students are also required to remain in secondary school until they have reached the age of eighteen or have obtained an Ontario Secondary School Diploma or Certificate.
