MISSION

Seven Summits strives to be the leading educational experience in the Kootenays for Grade 8-12 students with a focus on healthy athleticism and robust preparation for college or university.

As an innovative, self-sustaining, accessible and internationally recognized educational provider, our learners advance the knowledge, values and skills they need to meet their personal goals and to be a positive and successful force in the world.  Their skills are developed through participation and exploration in a supportive, nurturing environment, leading them to embrace a life of learning and meaningful experiences.

VISION

Our educational program aims to benefit a great variety of student profiles to help them thrive. This goal requires a specific learning climate:

  • We strive to be a supportive and inclusive learning environment that welcomes a diverse range of learning styles and cultural backgrounds. A prerequisite to an optimized atmosphere for learning is a safe environment that is personalized and relevant to nurture learners’ interests and curiosities

  • Due to the hybrid nature of our curriculum, a great deal of independence is required from our students, as well as a supportive attitude from our staff, teachers and parents

  • We believe that meaningful connections, built on trust between students, teachers, alumni, and the local community are imperative to the functioning of our Centre. We work closely with local partners, and we also support our students in finding volunteer opportunities to benefit the community

  • Technological innovation is key in creating solutions to educational challenges, which is why we do our best to stay abreast of technological trends
