What tradeoffs has Newton’s Grove School made to serve families in this way?

At Newton’s Grove, we don’t see it as making tradeoffs—we see it as making commitments.

At Newton’s Grove, students thrive academically, artistically, athletically, and technologically, all while growing as engaged and responsible citizens.

Founded in 1977, Newton’s Grove has a proud tradition of preparing students for success in university and in life.

The big picture on Newton’s Grove School

We summarized the school ourselves

Newton’s Grove began its life in 1977 as the first private school in Mississauga, known then as Mississauga Private School. It soon moved to Etobicoke, though returned to Mississauga in 2015, moving into its permanent location in 2017. The moves are symptomatic of the school’s growth, based in a growing reputation for its academics coupled with a robust athletic program. Values, too, are a draw, with a dedication to promoting respect and responsibility throughout the curricular areas. The ideal student is one able to thrive in a challenging, vibrant, socially oriented environment.

We questioned the school adminstration

Athletic Centre with a double gym and indoor track, all nestled in the unique surroundings of 100 acres of athletic fields and green space! Our inquiry-based curriculum exceeds the standards of the Ministry of Education. It encourages students to think independently, ask questions, and become critical thinkers.
