The big picture on Lower Canada College

We summarized the school ourselves

Founded in 1909, LCC has a long tradition and a reputation to match. The list of alumni includes some shining lights of Canadian arts, letters, politics, business, and academics. There is a sense of place, and it’s considerable—students feel that they are participating within something larger than themselves. Of course, LCC has evolved over the years, though adaptations have been considered and orderly. A bilingual program for the primary grades was adopted in the early 1990s. The school became fully coeducational in 1995. The International Baccalaureate programme, too, is relatively new. Families are attracted to the traditions of the school, and the dedication to adapting to meet the needs of students. LCC continues to provide an example both of the value of looking ahead, developing programs that will meet the evolving needs of students, and with an eye to the kinds of academic, professional, and social environments students will encounter in their post-secondary careers and beyond.

We questioned the school adminstration

1. Who are you, as a school?

"Globally minded, LCC is a gender-inclusive, independent, university-preparatory, K-12, day school offering the IB MYP and DP. Located on a 7-acre campus in the heart of the Monkland Village, the school has a rich history, an inspiring team of faculty, and a diverse and highly motivated student body. With a challenging academic program and extensive co-curricular offerings that include athletics, arts, service, debating and leadership, our focus is on fully developing the mind, body and heart of every student."
