The school has great facilities and the teachers are very friendly! The school is an Alberta curriculum school, hence all the faculty are Canadians therefore providing world class education for my son at the school. Overall happy with the school.

First off the school’s staff is very bias against students they personally dislike and treat them badly and don't help them as much. Also the facilities are super disgusting the bathrooms are rarely clean you can see all types of disgusting stuff inside the bathroom and the smell is horrible also the profanity and bad writings on the stalls. The school only cares about money and hire anyone. Also older kids are found vaping in the bathrooms. I would recommend none of you to join this school. Also school work is a lot and very hard.

School is very bad. Owners only care about money. Charge money for books but no books given to students. Canadian curriculum is too hard for students and diploma examinations are very very hard and controlled by Alberta government. Smoking in the school by the older students all the time. Avoid this school.

What I love about the place is the friendly atmosphere which reminds me of the schools in Canada. I even like the way that they build students character and emphasize on applied sciences.

This school is really bad. Students are out of control. The administration is invisible and/or useless at best. At the worst they implement micromanaging teaching techniques and discipline procedures that make it impossible for any kind of effective learning environment to be created. Most students are well below grade level. Instructional materials are non existent. The school is in its fifth year of operation and yet the science lab is still not equipped and basically non functional. Their use of an online chromebook based education is failing, it has resulted only in students being even more distracted. This school uses an English based Alberta curriculum which is very demanding, yet 75% of the students have poor English. There is no ESL program. This coupled with the constant disruptive behavior of many students results in no real authentic curriculum being delivered. There is a core of about 15-20% of students who could be high achievers, but they are constantly leaving due to the dysfunctional nature of the school. The teachers are really hard working and very professional. It’s amazing what they are able to accomplish given the circumstances. Most however, cannot wait for their contracts to be finished. The school has also in the past not paid teachers, not covered visa penalty costs, and not covered medical expenses for teachers. The contract the school gives you is basically meaningless. Be aware that there could be fines if you resign after a three month probation period. Teachers who resigned within the probation period were threatened with fines, but as this was illegal they simply were not paid for their last month of work. Avoid this school.
