MESSAGE FROM THE LEADERSHIP
We asked Deanne Jackson, Principal at Guiding Light Academy for their message.
They shared an overview of the vision, values, and guiding principles that shape both their leadership and the student experience at Guiding Light Academy.

Deanne Jackson, Principal
We at Guiding Light Academy are blessed to share the integral role of guiding our children during the formative years of their lives.
Through outstanding learning and teaching, with constant reinforcement of core values, we strive to prepare our children for the tapestry of life.
On a personal note, I have founded and managed School of Knowledge, Sharjah, U.A.E., for the last 30 years. My gratification is when my students, now young adults, feel that the best years of their lives were the ones spent in our care! This sense of achievement is what I endeavour to bring to the field of education in Toronto as well.
