Overview

About ArtsCalibre Academy

We offer a dynamic and diverse program designed to challenge the student academically, while encouraging exploration and development of their unique and artistic skills and talents. Students are encouraged to build upon their creative capacity to inquire with deep curiosity, to think unconventionally, to question the norm and imagine and reflect on new perspectives in order to become more passionate and compassionate members of a local and global community.

ArtsCalibre Academy is kindergarten to grade 9. We use the arts as a vehicle to deliver the BC curriculum in a hands-on, experiential environment.

Main Curriculum Programs

Based on The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, The Leader in Me equips students with the self-confidence and skills they need to thrive in the 21st-century economy.

Handwriting without Tears is an easy-to-teach, easy-to-learn curriculum that makes handwriting mastery joyful for students and teachers. Writing by hand improves creative writing skills and fine motor skills and elementary students have been found to write more and faster by hand than when keyboarding. Learn more at hwtears.com/hwt
