Dragon Academy

Profile: Founded in 2000, The Dragon Academy is an innovative, independent co-educational high school-- the first and only museum-based laboratory secondary school in Canada. The Dragon boasts a rigourous integrated curriculum unrivalled in its intellectual scope and adventurousness. Inspected and accredited by the Ontario Ministry of Education, and granting the OSSD, we produce graduates who are self-motivated, high-achieving, and visionary. Engaged parents who are dissatisfied with the delivery of education in Canada will find that The Dragon Academy values critical analysis, judgment, discipline, co-operation and accomplishment. Students whose love of learning is in danger of being stifled, and smart enough to ask why, will discover in The Dragon a school that respects their intelligence and believes they can think. The Dragon offers students a Socratic approach to education that takes them out of the classroom and into the world of museums, universities, galleries and libraries. Our approach does away with rows of desks and rote learning. Instead, we base ourselves on the seminar model, where students share their ideas across a table, learning to question, explore, think and make the decisions that allow them to become the strong, compassionate, honourable human beings they are meant to be.
