In addition to standard Ontario Secondary and Elementary courses our schools offer specialized programs in English as a Second Language (ESL), International Baccalaureate (IB), Business, Computer Science, Aviation, Visual Arts, and French Immersion. All school activities and clubs are open to international students. School teachers, guidance counsellors and administrators are committed to helping international students reach their full potential. Many of our international students have achieved excellent results at school and enter top Canadian Universities nearby such as McMaster University, University of Toronto and the University of Waterloo. As the 4th largest city in Ontario, Hamilton provides a safe, friendly and convenient environment to live. Rich in history and culture and surrounded by spectacular nature, Hamilton, is a city like no other.
