It’s hard to place an exact value on certain moments: the exhilaration of singing on the Roy Thomson Hall stage with hundreds of students from other CIS Ontario school choirs, after months of preparation; pitching an idea for an “app” that would solve a real-world problem to a panel of tech experts; or the life-altering elation of riding the team-bus back to school after winning the football final on the home team’s turf?
Such is the value of CIS Ontario program delivery in the realm of athletics, music, technology, drama, dance, visual arts and more. We supplement and enrich the independent-school educational experience with a range of opportunities for students to connect, learn and excel at their passions.
I marvel at how our enthusiastically our students engage with learning, each other and the world around them while participating in our student programs. There’s nothing else like it in Canada.
Sarah Craig, Executive Director, CIS Ontario
In order to help 'flatten the curve' and slow down the spread of COVID-19, CIS Ontario is cancelling, postponing or shifting online where possible, all CIS Ontario and CISAA gatherings, programs and events until the end of April. We will revisit all events that have been scheduled after April 2020 in the weeks ahead.
