While Alberta learning curriculum is used, Catholic philosophy forms the foundation for all instruction. School uniforms are worn, and in certain grade levels, boys and girls are taught separately. With 15 teachers instructing 85 students, there is plenty of opportunity for individual instruction and personal attention. Latin, French and religion are taught by qualified priests. Interdenominational The Timothy Centre for Scholarship offers a blended program for those interested in combining home schooling with classroom instruction.
Students divide their time between home and school.
The centre offers a classical education in the tradition of Reformation scholarship, teaching history, classical literature, Latin, logic and rhetoric. Its two-day academic program operates on Mondays and Wednesdays, teaching Alberta government curriculum in English, math, science and physical education. New for this coming year is the introduction of an expanded four-day academic program to also include extra high school math and science as well as French and American Sign Language. On Friday, enrichment courses are offered in career and technology studies, drama, art and choir. The Friday classes are open to all home and blended schoolers in the Calgary area.
