Welcome to the 32nd year of Anchor Academy. We give thanks to God for His continual
grace and provision for our school. As a Christian school, we are committed to providing
education through a Biblical lens. We are thankful for the continuing support of our
families, for the hard work of our current staff and teachers, and for the new teachers who are joining us for this year.
At Anchor Academy, we strive to continually improve student learning experiences and to
provide more learning options. For K-5 we have added a new component for Science
known as Mystery Science. This online resource makes learning Science fun through
combining Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) skills. For Grades 5-9, we
are developing robotic learning camps for students to have a hands-on experience with
robots. More online course options will be available for Grades 8-12 as well as revised
Grade 10 courses that meet the new Learning Standards.
In Special Education, we continue to provide excellent programs to meet the needs of
students who learn differently. With online tutoring, one-on-one support and innovative
technology such as MILO the robot and Integrated Learning Systems (iLs) where brain
functions are corrected, students are able to improve and meet specific goals in their
learning. Centres are being established in various areas to provide hands-on support in a
learning environment for students who need more structure.
A major emphasis of Anchor Academy is the promotion of a “Mission” mindset with
short-term Mission trips. Students are able to earn high school credits through these
Mission courses. Prizes for Scripture Memorization and other contests can be applied
towards the cost of the Mission trips.
Two incredible benefits of graduating from Anchor Academy are the Grad Celebration,
and the generous bursaries awarded for Christian Post-Secondary
education.
Thank you for choosing Anchor Academy and I look forward to working with all of the
families this year!
