An underlying tenet at March Academy is that education should provide children with a compass to help guide and support their ability to find their way, rather than a single road map that everyone must follow. March Academy empowers students by teaching them how to learn, while at the same time, helps them to respect and work with their peers and to benefit from a group learning environment. Recognizing personal strengths and using these strengths to be effective learners, as well as learning how to advocate for personal needs is infused into the March Academy program. Through high, reasonable expectations, incorporating individual learning styles, by emphasizing the positive and by teaching co-operation, we give each child a chance to shine and express their true potential.
For over 20 years, March Academy has been serving children in Ottawa and its surrounding areas. Teachers, trained and experienced in differentiated learning, guide and support learners including those diagnosed as gifted or with learning disabilities such as language based learning disabilities, dyslexia, dysgraphia, non-verbal disabilities, ADD, and ADHD. Please contact us to discuss how March Academy can best meet the needs of your learner.
Education should provide children with a compass to guide them and to support their ability to find their way, rather than a road map that everyone should follow unquestioningly. March Academy is about empowering students. It challenges them and helps them grow, primarily by teaching them how to learn.
