About Curriculum Apply Happenings Support


Just as taking notes while you're part of the discussion can be challenging, Dragon education involves so much doing beyond traditional studying that it can be hard to keep up with us. What are we doing, contemplating, reading, discussing? What opportunities are there to come see us in action? Our HAPPENINGS page will link you to the school year calendar, our Open House schedule, recent and upcoming Dragon events, the Principal's blog, the exciting topics our students discover and debate on This Week in Science, the Integrative Projects which explore ideas across subject fields, and, under New and Noteworthy we'll share information on performances, films, broadcasts, books, speakers of special interest.

  • Special guest at the February 12th Open House: Jane Thompson
    Jane Thompson is a working mom, with a lifelong passion for understanding and improving women's lives. She has both a business degree and a Ph.D. in women's history. She leads a scholarship program for a major Canadian corporation which awards more than a million dollars each year to undergraduates who will become tomorrow's leaders. Her wise, witty and well-researched book, Resilient Woman: Weaving Together Work, Family and Self, has just been published. On February 12, 2013, at 6:30 p.m., Jane will share her insights.

    Join Dragon faculty, parents, students and friends for a book-talk with Jane and the opportunity to experience the vibrant Dragon community.

  • Breathing Fire
    A global market, a commercial press, greed for a mass]market audience all make it hard to hear the voices of our own community. We are pleased to announce the third annual Dragon reading series, Breathing Fire, offering a platform for emerging and outsider voices, the strong and beautiful voices of our community. Come be part of this unique reading series, held on Thursday evenings at Dragon Academy, and share wine and words, cheese and talkback.
