4worldlovers: “Gifted education is not a privilege or a prize. It is not an elite club. For those who do need it … gifted education is a necessity — a necessity designed to meet the unique educational needs of an outlier group.”

Giftedness is often a misunderstood idea. And when the idea of giftedness is misunderstood, so is the gifted child.

New Horizons School is a K-9 public charter school where giftedness is understood. It is a place that enables academically gifted students to achieve excellence in an environment that supports the students’ unique intellectual, social and emotional needs.

“Learning Disabilities” refer to a number of disorders that may affect the acquisition, organization, retention, understanding, or use of verbal or nonverbal information. These disorders affect learning in individuals who otherwise demonstrate at least average abilities essential for thinking and/or reasoning. These disorders are not due primarily to hearing and/or vision problems, socio-economic factors, cultural or linguistic differences, lack of motivation, or ineffective teaching (Learning Disabilities Association of Canada, January 30, 2002 - Re-endorsed on March 2, 2015).

At the Academy at King Edward (AKE), our primary emphasis is on closing the gap in the academic areas of reading, writing and mathematics with the goal of reintegration into community school programming. This occurs alongside of our focus on rebuilding the confidence, persistence, resilience, organization and social skills of the students in our program. In grades 3-9, additional time is devoted to literacy and numeracy instruction above that which usually occurs in a community school so that we can address the academic gaps in these areas. As a result, students receive modified exposure to the science and social studies curriculum. Second language instruction is also omitted for our students in elementary and is only offered as an option in junior high and high school.

What specialized supports does the Academy provide in addition to a small setting with a special education trained teacher?

Students in junior high have an opportunity to select one option to enroll in each term. The option offerings vary each year but below is a sampling of the options we typically offer:
