What Sets Our Elementary Program Apart?

Academics that Go Beyond the Basics

Our curriculum is grounded in the Ontario Ministry of Education standards, but we don’t stop there. Students explore literature through storytelling, learn math through problem-solving, and dive into science with experiments. We blend structure with flexibility, letting students grow at their own pace while staying challenged and supported.

A Place Where Every Child Belongs

At USCA Academy, no student is just a number. With smaller class sizes, caring staff, and close teacher-parent communication, students feel valued and included. Our team takes the time to understand how each child learns and how best to help them thrive.

“We had tried other schools, but this is where my daughter truly felt understood and excited to go to class every morning.” —Parent of a Grade 4 Student

From Early Grades to Lifelong Growth

We believe that elementary education lays the groundwork for everything that follows. That’s why we teach students not just facts, but how to ask questions, lead discussions, and collaborate with others. Our elementary students don’t just prepare for high school—they develop habits that serve them long beyond graduation.
