Our school reflects the multicultural mosaic that is Canada! We are proud to have students and staff from all racial, ethnic and cultural backgrounds.

Classes have a 12-16 students per teacher (1:12-16) ratio. Our low teacher-student ratio means that we are actively engaging with our learners. The Maples Academy’s small classes provide excellent opportunities for individual student success.

Instruction is primarily done in English. French is our main second language focus, as it is a required component of the IB programme.

The Maples students are serious about academic excellence, but are equally excited by the fun new opportunities always happening at TMA!

The House System makes our school culture unique and a ton of fun! Wear your House colors apparel and support your peers at our exciting sports events, challenges, contests and activities. Competitive streak? Check!

Yes! The Maples Academy offers a Before and After School Care Program for students in JK to Grade 8, to provide families with the convenience of early drop-offs and/or late pickups.

Be courageous and introduce yourself! Try saying: “Hi, I’m new! Can we hang out?” and by the end of the first day, we are sure that you will have a new friend!
