Multi-Campus Model
Mount Royal and Virginia Park Schools are on a shared journey as a multi-campus Arts Core Program. Having two campuses ensures that we can accommodate students interested in participating in an Arts Core learning environment. Every effort is made to offer similar programming to students on each campus. This reality helps to shape not only a shared theme for both schools, but also shared staff, shared leadership, shared professional learning, shared pedagogy and shared philosophy.
Arts Core
We believe that learning - just like imagination - has no boundaries. We work to create a joyous, challenging, and stimulating learning environment that encourages creativity and supports student achievement. The heart of our school lies in the joy to play, the passion to create, and the commitment to community.
21st Century Learning
Students at Mount Royal•Virginia Park Arts Core Schools are 21st Century Learners. They require a program that is flexible, creative, and challenging to address their rapidly changing world that is filled with new problems as well as exciting new possibilities.
The 21st Century requires knowledge generation and research, rather than simply knowledge delivery; it requires the creation of a culture of inquiry. Our students are digital learners who use technological and multimedia tools to address this culture of inquiry.
