Grade 5 - Academic + Custom Sports

It is often overwhelming to think of Grade 5–8 students as university-bound, but they indeed are! The Blyth Academy Elementary & Middle School Program immerses students into an academic setting reminiscent of the very best post-secondary institutions; very small class sizes (averaging under eight students), roundtable discussions as opposed to desk-based lessons, and rich, experiential learning opportunities outside of the classroom introduce students to this new way of learning.

Students will begin to gain confidence as they transition from the more rigid school environment to the Blyth Academy model, where students are encouraged to participate, where every seat is a front row seat, and no-one is left behind. The class environment is highly interactive as teachers are able to fully engage in meaningful discussion and give individual attention. The Blyth Academy model has been proven year after year to increase academic success through constant feedback and the ability to customize learning to the individual, something that is impossible in a larger classroom setting.

Participation builds confidence, self-esteem, and empathy, valuable life skills that form the foundation of a happy, engaged, and academically successful child who is heard and understood.

Blyth Academy Burlington's Custom Sports program helps student-athletes develop their skills in the sports they love through daily training and hands-on experience. Students work with the Athletic Director to create a program that meets their specific training needs.
