Founder’s/ Principal’s Statement

To Learn is an active not a passive verb. At Dragon we pursue meaningful learning through discussion, participation, and experience. Beginning with a handful of adventurous students in 2001, Dragon has earned a well-deserved reputation for excellence and educational leadership.

Our mission is to develop individual capability. Our students are high achievers and go on to post-secondary success, but a Dragon education is much more than scores and admissions. Our academic program is demanding and compelling; we are as interested in the development of character as we are in scholastic achievement. Using the resources of a great city, we engage students with their own potential, and with the role they can play in society. Dragon alumni frequently tell us how the school has been a home to them, and how it inspired them on a journey of self-discovery. By engaging our students in a purposeful search for knowledge and truth, we have become leaders in progressive education.

The Dragon Academy needs to be experienced to be fully appreciated. We encourage prospective students and their families to visit us. This is a better measure of the right fit than a raft of admissions tests and reference letters. To visit us, please contact the Registrar. We look forward to meeting you.
