One of the best private schools of Calgary

Last school year was the first year two of our four children attended Delta West Academy. Our eldest attended a different well known private school, which at the time we were more then satisfied with however that was before we experienced DWA. This year our eldest and youngest along with our other two children are attending DWA. Our family has moved across the United States multiple times before our current move to Alberta, Canada. Our children have attended and switched schools more times then most grown adults but it was necessary. This is also our third school in the Calgary Area. The thought of taking our eldest out of her previous school wasn’t even a possible discussion at the time. However, Wow! We were blown away by Delta West Academy, the administration and staff are amazing! To be honest I was not prepared for the emails, school events, field trips and etc. I have never had the opportunity to be so connected with a school like Delta West. A strong communication relationship with the school then lead to a strong relationship between parent and child. This year I must admit that my calendar and myself are ready to tackle this school year. It’s almost impossible to not be impressed by what your child will be experiencing at Delta West. Yes, there is fundraising, yes even mandatory. Private schools are independent schools, they do not receive funds from the government or state therefore fundraising is unavoidable. To say that the economy doesn't play a roll in the number of students not returning is mind boggling and a complete visual impairment of the financial state of Alberta's residents .

this school is fun a lot of educational field trips what i like about this school is the teachers they help u understand things help u with problems people here are like family once u come u will know people here care for each other third academy is like a second family to me so if u need a school for ur kids this is the right one

best school ever

Isaac says that North Point School is a fabulous place it makes me feel like I am making a difference, it is a school that works with our strengths and help us be successful. It is a great place to make friends!

Great food and good service but they forgot to bring me my coke :(

Excellent school, amazing teachers, incredible curriculum and French level.

It is a funny thing to offer a review for a school in the same way that you might offer a review for a hamburger joint. Offering a review for a school one attended is not the same kind of thing as offering a review for a traditional store or service provider because in order to do well at a school, the participant, and their parents and family, must be willing to themselves grow and learn and potentially let go of bad habits that they picked up elsewhere. Not the case with hamburgers. But, letting go of bad habits, and being in a situation where I needed to find my way, was indeed the case for me. After three years in a local public junior high and half a year in the local high school, I was in rough shape. My grades were only marginally above the bare minimum passing point, and I was as angst-filled as any teenager might have been. There were certainly teachers who tried to help, to reach me, and to offer guidance, but with 30-50+ students in a class, and multiple classes throughout the day, there was basically no way that anyone had time to see me, let alone remember my name. I don't blame those public schools, but they certainly didn't help. I was lost in every sense of the word, with a D+ average. I went to Banbury for the latter part of my high school education, as I had done for grades one through five, and it felt like the part in the movie where the hero finds their way again. The overall atmosphere was caring, compassionate, patient, individualized, and I felt coached, and mentored personally, by almost every teacher I interacted with. It took me some time to get my progress back up to speed, but fast forward more than a decade, and I'm finishing my third degree, which will be my second graduate degree. I'm not certain I could have ended up where I am without Banbury helping me find my way again. A lot of people like hamburgers. It isn't hard to have a successful hamburger joint, because a good hamburger will appeal to a large number of people. A good school, on the other hand, only needs to be good for *you*. It will likely be great for others, too, but it doesn't need to be great for *everyone*. I'm not sure Banbury is great for everyone. The public system is OK. Plenty of children go through the public system and end up just fine. But, for a hundred different reasons, it doesn't work for everyone. If you're reading this, you, or your child, or someone you know, might not be getting their needs best met by the public system, or even by another independent school. It's hard to provide a review that reads like a burger review, because what worked for me might not be what you're looking for. But, I can speak sincerely when I say that Banbury is a nurturing environment that produces confident students who believe in themselves and go on to accomplish and be happy in their lives. I have kept in touch with most, if not almost all, of my Banbury friends, and by and large, they are all better, or significantly better, according to their own admission, than they would have been had they not gone to Banbury. If you want to experience self-directed learning at one of the first schools to do that in Canada, where teachers have the time and sensitivity to care, where students learn to manage themselves, ask for what they want to, and to be given the space and nourishment to grow into the best versions of themselves possible, then I think Banbury could well be for you. But don't take my word for it. Go check it out yourself. And, if it doesn't look like something you want, remember, it isn't a hamburger.

the wifi is fine stop complaining

Excellent teachers, staffs and facilities. Everybody at this school really cares about the students and passionate about teaching. Highly recommended.
