Our Progress
A Remarkable Milestone
Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our community, the first phase of the Building Futures campaign has now raised $12.3 million, surpassing our original goal of $12 million.
This milestone reflects the deep belief our community shares in the future of Academy students and the power of coming together to create meaningful opportunities.
With Phase 1 well underway, we are now turning our attention to Phase 2 of the Academy expansion.
The Vision
The Academy expansion will allow us to welcome 455 students through a phased-in approach, representing a 62% increase in enrolment, while preserving the individualized learning environment that defines the Academy.
The campaign is being completed in two distinct phases.
Phase 1: Academic Wing
Raised: $12.3 Million
Opening: August 31, 2026
Phase 1 includes:
34 new classrooms
Outdoor learning spaces
Individual work pods
Collaborative breakout rooms
Construction is progressing well, on scope, on budget and on time. View our current progress tour to see exactly where we are at as of April 2026.
We are now turning our attention to Phase 2 of the Academy Expansion.
Phase 2: Co-Curricular Wing
Phase 2 will complete the full Academy experience with spaces that support learning beyond the classroom, including:
Gymnasium
Great Hall
Learning commons
Science labs
Art and music spaces
Cafeteria and gathering areas
Counselling and wellness spaces
These spaces will help students collaborate, create, discover confidence, and build the skills that shape their futures.
Goal for phase 2: To be determined.
Our Community
This progress belongs to our entire community of donors, families, alumni, grandparents, volunteers, and friends who believe deeply in the Academy’s mission.
Phase 1 has built a strong foundation. Phase 2 is about completing the vision and creating a fully realized campus for future generations of Academy students.
