Coast Mountain Academy is a non-profit, independent university-preparatory school for students in grades 7-12. Our unique 21st-century approach fosters opportunities for well-rounded and engaged learning. CMA offers a dynamic experience that nurtures students’ sense of wonder and promotes the pursuit of life-long learning. Our primary goal is to support the holistic development of students through a diversity of teaching strategies that include: -Teaching faculty and learning venues that emphasize academic rigor, challenge, and engagement; -Smaller class sizes to ensure a greater familiarity and more dedicated interaction between teacher and student; -Longer class periods that facilitate programming for varied learning styles; -Scheduling that supports cross-curricular learning opportunities. Students actively engage knowledge in a variety of learning venues specifically designed to support their existing strengths, while also challenging them to pursue new skills, broader perspectives, and deeper meaning. CMA students will earn the BC Ministry of Education Dogwood Diploma, an internationally recognized academic accreditation. Coast Mountain Academy endeavours to graduate inspired leaders with the exceptional academic, social, and emotional preparedness common to conscientious and successful global citizens.
