MISSION...

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

VISION...

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

Approved by the Seneca Academy Board of Trustees on September 12, 2009
