To provide a nurturing environment that meets the intellectual, social, emotional and physical needs of our students through engaging, challenging inquiry-based education.

To develop globally aware life-long learners and leaders.

Seneca Academy is an International Baccalaureate Candidate School, and is in the process of becoming a fully authorized International Baccalaureate/Primary Years Program school. Through the IB/PYP, we will help students develop the intellectual, personal, emotional and social skills to live, learn and work in a rapidly globalizing world.

We believe in turning experience into knowledge through...

• Nurturing students in small classes – indoors and outdoors
  
  
• Engaging students in developmentally appropriate active learning
  
  
• Challenging students to meet their personal best
  
  
• Encouraging self-confidence and independence
  
  
• Fostering responsibility and respect
  
  
• Developing effective communicators and problem-solvers
