Curriculum
Academic Excellence and Personal Development
Our curriculum combines the inquiry-based approach of the IB Middle Years Programme with a strong emphasis on university preparation, ensuring students develop critical thinking skills and a deep understanding of key academic subjects.
This blend allows students to engage in meaningful learning experiences that foster intellectual and personal growth.
Preparation for Higher Education and Beyond
Our focus extends beyond the IB MYP to include a comprehensive university-preparatory program.
This ensures that students are well-equipped for success in their post-secondary education, particularly within Canada, as they work towards obtaining the Ontario Secondary School Diploma.

Our Grade 11 students have kicked off their Poetry unit by exploring the Harlem Renaissance, a time of celebrating Black culture, art, and music. 🎨✨ After some research, they enjoyed a Gallery Walk to dive deeper into the era’s creativity.
Meanwhile, Grade 9 is working on memoirs! Before reading Baghdad Burning, they explored the social and political context of the author’s world, and are now preparing to write their own stories. ✍️📖

Exciting times at Lynn-Rose! 🎓✨ Big thanks to our head teacher, Ms. Little, for organizing an amazing opportunity for our students to connect directly with university recruitment teams. 🙌 On October 7, we were thrilled to have Sameera Khan from York University speak with our Grade 11 and 12 students in a small-group setting about early acceptance, scholarships, program requirements, and the vibrant community York is building. 💼🏫
We`re so proud of our students and can’t wait to see all they’ll accomplish! 📚
