SAC offers a rigorous academic curriculum with multiple Advanced Placement (AP) opportunities and a rich, activity-based educational environment. A wireless tablet program adds to the learning experience, incorporating the latest technology into the classroom.

We welcome boys from around the world with strong academic backgrounds who also want to become active members of our community. As set out in our mission statement, SAC’s academic program is complemented by a wide range of cocurricular activities designed to develop ‘the complete man, the well-rounded citizen.’ All students participate in our extensive athletic program (74 teams across 21 sports) and the 118-year-old Cadet Corps. Many of our students also choose to participate in SAC’s internationally acclaimed arts, drama, and music programs and are active in photography, broadcasting, robotics, community outreach, leadership, and more.

A St. Andrew’s education is like no other. Graduates gain entry to top universities in Canada, the U.S., and abroad. They are renowned for their strong values, dedication to the community, lasting achievements, and lifelong friendships.

Why St. Andrew’s College? Over 120 years of experience teaching boys has shown us that our students benefit when teachers prioritize organization, support active engagement with the topic at hand, and empower students to work toward authenticity. Teachers at St. Andrew’s design their courses to reflect both the Ministry of Education’s curriculum and our beliefs that all students need to work in a collaborative environment where critical thinking is expected and a growth mindset is fostered.

Our overarching mission statement suggests that being well-rounded is at the heart of the St. Andrew’s classroom experience, and students are encouraged to seek breadth in their course selection. Advanced Placement courses are offered for those who seek to accelerate their learning in a particular field of study. Most importantly, we know that how a student feels about his teacher directly impacts his capacity to learn; the positive rapport between students and teachers is tangible in the hallways, classrooms, and on the playing fields.

St. Andrew’s offers an exceptional Arts/Co-curricular Plus (ACPlus) program that engages students in a range of 40 diverse activities throughout the year, in addition to sports. These activities include bagpiping, pottery, coding, cooking, debating, media arts, drumming, film, guitar club, investment club, painting, medical sciences, Model UN, and many others. With such a wide variety of opportunities, students can explore their interests, develop new skills, and build lasting friendships beyond the classroom.

We take pride in our Athletics program, which boasts 74 teams across 21 sports, including soccer, volleyball, American football, hockey, squash, swimming, basketball, fencing, skiing, golf, tennis, baseball, rugby, curling and many more. We believe that participation in sports is essential for physical fitness and developing teamwork, leadership, and discipline. To support our students’ physical health and performance, all students are required to participate in our Athletics programs. We also have a dedicated strength and conditioning team available to students. Our team of experts ensures that students can access the resources and training they need to achieve their athletic goals and stay healthy. With our comprehensive Athletics program and professional support, students can excel on and off the field.

“Choosing St. Andrew’s was a bit of a family decision; my brother went to SAC first, and his love for the campus influenced my decision. From the long weekend trips to the athletic opportunities and the tradition, there are always new experiences. But I think the food is what I love the most. I’m also learning to be independent, and my friends and teachers are helping me experience things outside my comfort zone. At St. Andrew’s, you can discover new passions and try new things every year. I’ve already found no two years are the same.”
