Calgary Academy has been a blessing for our son and our family. They provide unique tools in their teaching for every students learning differences and accomodate most students that come to them for assistance. My son is managing a B+ average now within his grade level curriculum! This tremendously improves his self confidence and his ability to continue moving forward in his schooling! Thank you Calgary Academy!
I was a student from grades 4-9 and feel as if I was failed by the amount of assistance I had to my learning disabilitys. After moving to the public system I felt more supported and much happier than I was at CA.
not sure what everyone's babbling about here. this is a perfectly good school, for me at least. news flash, some kids are different from others. great experience, for me at least. teachers know what students need and do their best to provide that.
I walked by the school and some kid called me attractive. I knew they were lying. Ive been crying for 2 hours. This is a cry for help.
I am a high school student at Calgary Academy and I find C.A perfectly suitable, namely the teachers are willing to put in the time for students. The high school program stresses self advocacy, and the staff and teachers develop a supportive environment for us students. In addition, the school counsellor Mr. Tolsma is very helpful with university and post secondary education applications. If need be he will sit down and help students with their entire application. All my teachers are professional, and show a genuine interest in helping each of their student achieve their best. 06/ 2019
As a university student in a decently difficult program, I can confidently say that the learning strategies and the general outlook developed during my tenure as a student at Calgary Academy have given me an advantage over the competition. Despite what people may say about the school, as an alumni, I felt prepared and supported on my journey into post secondary education. 11/2019
This academy puts the best interest of its students absolutely LAST! Multiple of my close relatives have had terrible experiences there. I certainly would recommend thinking twice before considering enrolling here.
My daughter was turned down despite having an average IQ. We were told that she needed more support than they could provide. So very confused. I thought this school was supposed to accept students with learning disabilities and help teach them through their academic struggles. One week before my daughter's interview we were told that 7 spots were available for grade 7 and that three people had already applied. But once we got to the interview they said that they were so tight that they couldn't promise anything. I would not recommend this school to anyone.
My daughter went here from grade 7 thru 12. She has a significant reading disability and this school helped her way more than public school. She graduated with 90% plus in all of her classes. She didn't even have a grade 4 reading level when she was enrolled, the teachers were amazing.
