Though relatively new, FEIA has a lot to offer, beginning with extensive physical resources. The campus includes two academic buildings, with some structures dating to the 1920s, and others, modernist, constructed in the 1960s. Learning and living areas are varied, spacious, and developed in ways that you simply don’t find in international schools of this vintage. To build a campus this large and well-appointed would be a feat for any school in its first years. Also beginning construction is a boarding facility that, once finished, promises to be jewel of the property. To say the school is proximate to the Canada-US border risks understatement—Buffalo, New York, is just across the Niagara River, the shore of which is just a block from the FEIA campus. Also close by is the largest customs port between the two countries. As such, the school has access a considerable array of transportation hubs, including both the Toronto and Buffalo international airports. The academic program is rigorous, created for students intending to go on to post-secondary studies in North America. The co-curricular program adds dimension to student life, and is rightly a priority of faculty. Given that the school is relatively new, FEIA perhaps isn’t the first option that comes to mind, though that will surely change, particularly with the completion of the dormitory. It’s a strong option, to be sure, and definitely a school to watch.

I am honoured to serve as Fort Erie Academy's principal! This is my sixth year in educational leadership. Before becoming principal, I had many leadership experiences, including lead teacher, student life coordinator, and vice principal. Throughout these amazing experiences, teaching still remains central to my everyday practices.
I also have more than ten years of classroom teaching experience in private boarding schools in Southeast Asia, Australia, the Middle East and Canada. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Arts in English and History (University of Guelph), a Graduate Diploma in Education (University of Newcastle, Australia), a Teacher Leadership Specialist, a Guidance and Career Education Specialist, and an Ontario College of Teachers Principal qualification.
I am privileged to lead Fort Erie International Academy and the many talented teachers and students here! My goal is to continue to bring passion to education with a commitment to creating a supportive climate and culture at F.E.I.A. conducive to teaching the “Whole Child,” empowering staff & students by creating a conducive environment for teaching and learning, implementing meaningful initiatives, and inspiring life-long learning and well-being! I look forward to working with all stakeholders in our growing school community this year!

Liberal Arts curricula share with traditional programs their emphasis on core knowledge-acquisition, but tend to borrow more best practices from the progressive approach. A Liberal Arts program might still feature group work and projects, for example, contrary to the more singular emphasis on tests and essays at a Traditional program.
Progressive (sometimes called "in- quiry-based") curricula attempt to place children's interests and ideas at the heart of the learning experience. Instead of lessons being driven by predetermined pathways, progressive curricula are often "emergent", with learning activities shaped by students' questions about the world. Instead of starting with academic concepts and then tying it to everyday experience, progressive methods begin with everyday experience and work back to an academic lesson. Teachers provide materials, experiences, tools and resources to help students investigate a topic or issue. Students are encouraged to explore, reflect on their findings, and discuss answers or solutions.

At Fort Erie International Academy, our academics are delivered with an experiential approach. We develop problem solving and critical thinking skills. Students are highly engaged with this style of learning as they apply the concepts they learn in a practical manner. We achieve a balance between individual and group activities. Group activity is the norm in our classes with students taking on leadership roles. Together they learn to collaborate and to appreciate different opinions as they achieve common goals.
Our school utilizes a progressive, strength-based approach to curriculum delivery with an emphasis on universal design and inclusivity in the classroom. Our program is uniquely tailored to meet the needs of twice-exceptional learners, who often present with wonderful abilities and talents in certain domains while also requiring specific support to access and demonstrate learning due to exceptional needs in other domains. Our goal is to successfully and holistically engage all students in the process of learning by meeting them where they are and guiding them on a path of constant and never-ending improvement.

Phonics-intensive
Systematic-phonics programs teach young children to read by helping them to recognize and sound out the letters and syllables of words. Students are then led to blend these sounds together to sound out and recognize the whole word. While other reading programs might touch on phonetics (either incidentally or on a “when needed” basis), systematic phonics teaches phonics in a specific sequence, and uses extensive repetition and direct instruction to help readers associate specific letter patterns with their associated sounds.

Standard-enriched
Broadly-speaking, the main curriculum -- like that of most schools -- paces the provincially-outlined one. This pace is steady and set by the teachers and school. The curriculum might still be enriched in various ways: covering topics more in-depth and with more vigor than the provincial one, or covering a broader selection of topics.

Students have access to support services via dedicated support staff, dedicated time for support, and flexible groupings to support learning goals and progress.
Supportive
A school with a “supportive” academic culture focuses more on process than short-term outcomes: academic performance is a welcomed side-benefit, but not the driving focus. This does not mean the school lacks standards, or has low expectations for its students: a school can have a supportive academic culture and still light the fire of ambition in its students. It does mean, however, the school provides a less intensive culture than schools with a “rigorous” academic classification, and is focused more simply on instilling a love of learning and life-long curiosity.

We approach academic performance with the belief that all students are unique and can succeed even if they require different evidence-based practices in order to learn and demonstrate their skills. We structure our learning environment in a way that demonstrates unconditional positive regard for our students' abilities while removing barriers to learning through inclusive, adaptive instructional practices. We engage students in a setting with lower student-to-teacher ratios, provide learning plans to 100% of our pupils, and assign faculty advisors to all learners to ensure students are always seen and supported. This allows our faculty to form collegial relationships with students so that they can facilitate the development of students to become the best version of themselves possible.

In order for students to be ready to learn and develop to their highest potential, Fort Erie International Academy (FEIA) is committed to ensuring that students and staff thrive in a safe and welcoming community that embodies mutual respect, inclusivity, and is equitable and caring. FEIA is committed to creating a diverse and multicultural environment that builds positive relationships and promotes enthusiasm for learning to prepare students for post-secondary education and career destinations.
In working with twice-exceptional learners, we recognize that many of our students present with profiles that show levels of ability beyond their chronological age in some areas and below in other areas. This bifurcated profile type is not identical from person to person so we approach student development with a balanced set of priorities. This ensures that we are able to provide support, structure, and guidance in the domains of academic, emotional, social, and physical development for those with additional needs in these areas without excluding or over-emphasizing any one area. This balanced approach allows students with exceptional talents to shine through their strengths without focusing exclusively on deficits to the detriment of a student's confidence and overall experience.

We understand and expect that students will change over time. As such, we know that their needs will change as well. In some cases, students grow into a stage of development where underlying differences become more apparent, to the point of clinical significance. We are willing and able to support families through this process and help connect them to resources for additional support and assessment within the community. Working with twice-exceptional students means we are sensitive to the needs of students with learning difficulties and welcome them into our school.

In order for students to be ready to learn and develop to their highest potential, Fort Erie International Academy (FEIA) is committed to ensuring that our students and staff thrive in a safe and welcoming community that embodies mutual respect, inclusivity, and is equitable and caring.
The Study Academy is a place to learn differently. Our bright and quirky environment reflects the students thé bring life to our community. We are institution that provides innovative, differentiated and engaging learning fir students grade 3-12. Our students demonstrate a keen interest in learning and solving problems. They demonstrate and active engagement in their success and are open to also developing the critical executive function skills and strategies. Finally, our students are risk takers and are motivated to solve problems, differently.
The FEIA International Student Application Process includes four inclusive steps that must be completed in full before we can grant enrolment acceptance to any student applicant:
We encourage all interested families to reach out via our website. From there you will be greeted by our knowledge administrator to arrange an intake interview. From there a class visit is required and we will work with families and the student to arrange a visit that will work best for their learning and social emotional needs. During the class visit(s) we observe the students response to 1:1 engagement, interaction with the class material and response to differentiation, and the students engament with social opportunities. After the visit(s) data is gathered and the family is contacted about next steps. In order to provide the greatest opportunity for success offers of admissions are always specific to the learner needs and may include a scaffolded entry.
