How do you see each student in Secondary?
“We see each student in Secondary as a unique individual with the capacity to grow intellectually, spiritually, and personally—curious about the world, eager to learn, and open to discovering God’s truth in all areas of life.”
By the time they leave Lower Secondary, students at Wellspring Academy will:
- Have a personal relationship with Christ, knowing their identity in Him and living with confidence, compassion, and purpose.
- Demonstrate Christ’s love through their words and actions in their families, school, and community.
- Think critically, solve problems creatively, and communicate effectively.
- Be responsible stewards of God’s creation and actively contribute to their community.
Our Educational Approach
We follow a holistic, Christ-centered educational model that nurtures students spiritually, intellectually, socially, and emotionally. Learning is active, student-centered, and grounded in Christian values. We emphasize critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and real-world application to prepare students for purposeful lives.

Comment sont gérées la discipline et la gestion de classe ?
At Wellspring Academy, discipline and classroom management are guided by our mission and vision, emphasizing servant leadership, respect, love, and biblical principles. Our approach is rooted in restorative practices that seek to build character and foster a supportive school culture.
Teachers and staff create a positive learning environment by setting clear expectations, modeling respectful behavior, and encouraging students to take responsibility for their actions.

At Wellspring Academy, our learning approach is student-centered, encouraging active participation, creativity, and independent thinking. We assign meaningful homework, projects, and hands-on tasks that allow students to demonstrate their understanding through presentations, demonstrations, and showcases.
