Students at Westmount Public School are reaching higher in their education through a new learning academy program. The school is one of three pilot project learning academies that provides grades 7 and 8 students opportunities to learn in an experiential environment while meeting the requirements of the Ontario curriculum. Three academies, sports and recreation, fine arts, and global citizenship have been established at Westmount school, where students are required to choose two to study. Teacher Casey Charles spent the day with his class at the Boulder Bear Climbing Centre on Thursday teaching his students about climbing.
