1 Fulford Academy Summer School

2 Fulford Academy, a private international boarding school (grades 7-10), is located in Brockville, Ontario, CANADA, home of the world famous Thousand Islands. Fulford Academy s programs provide students, from all over the world, with an environment where they can gain both the academic qualifi cations and the linguistic ability to be very competitive for admission to North America s top boarding schools. Our Summer School Program is ideal for a wide range of students, ages 11 to 17, wanting to improve their English skills and prepare for future studies in North America. This program is primarily for students who have received a Letter of Acceptance to a boarding school in September, have applied to our programs or are considering a boarding experience in the future.

3 Our small intimate classrooms give a superior level of support, enabling students to increase their reading, writing, listening and speaking skills as they study math, geography, science, history and English. Teaching English through content based curriculum allows our students to increase their classroom vocabulary in preparation for the North American classroom. Course options* include Ministry of Education in Ontario credits towards the Ontario Secondary School Diploma in math, science, English, ESL and/ or Literacy (both for credit or audit/ preparation purposes). Maximum two credits per seven-week Summer School Program. *Depending on availability and eligibility Graduates of our program are equipped with the knowledge and skills to successfully learn in an English language environment. } They also learn to embrace opportunities to show leadership, make new friends and build their confi dence in a Canadian environment. I strongly believe that my summer at Fulford Academy helped me to build a foundation for my steps afterwards and that I will benefi t further from my experience there.

5 } Fulford Academy s contribution in my achievements was tremendous as it was the fi rst to provide a setting for me to grow, develop personally and academically, and then gave me a chance to showcase my full potential. It was the social, cultural, academic, language skills, and, of course, selfconfi dence that I took away from my Fulford Academy experience and transferred them into boarding school and university careers. [...] Fulford Academy is more than a school, it became home away from home to its students, including me.
