Uchenna Academy’s unique project-based learning platform allows students to gain experience and learn real-life applications of math & science content through STEM based courses, including our exclusive Innovation & Research Course developed in partnership with University Health Network (UHN).

ADD AN ‘A+’ TO YOUR REPORT CARD THIS SUMMER!

Every summer Uchenna Academy offers math, science, English, media & economics high school courses. We know some of our students want to stay active during the summer so we’ve designed each course with a special project that takes place outside our classroom walls.

Math courses have 4 hours of ‘gym time‘.  While inside a gymnasium, we complete experiments and collect data for a project while playing sports.  Yes, there is lots of math involved!

Economics & science courses have visits to a research hospital and/or a cancer centre embedded in their curriculum, while media & English courses have field trips to the AGO & other art centres in the city.

At Uchenna Academy summer school, students can expect challenging curriculum, project-based learning and a low student to teacher ratio.

Payment plans are available.  Academic assistance (in any course) is FREE to all Uchenna Academy summer school students.

Happy studying!
