The School of Purpose
Entrepreneurial ~ Community ~ Co Operative
Individually Designed High School Program
The School of Purpose is an alternative to government run high school programs specifically available to students interested in designing their own high school experience. This program is ideal for students who are business owners or wish to have and run their own businesses, regardless of whether they are service oriented or product based. This program will also work for students interested in joining a profession (Naturopath, Doctor, Nurse, Midwife, Lawyer, Trade Person, etc). They will research and design their own preparatory program specific to their goals which will include a correspondence program to attain their Grade 12 Diploma. In addition to business learning, personal development along with other skills and programs that have been determined to be beneficial for the foundational learning journey are included and can be expanded upon in the event that a student is unsure about their future goals or is hesitant to commit to any particular path.
​
The School of Purpose is currently exploring teaching locations possible for 4-10 students aged 14 to 21 years, supporting prospective teachers and TSOM Pod Runners through our Teacher Training Program, while fund raising to add more financial supports so we may expand our school community.

Our Children Are The Future
Every website has a story, and your visitors want to hear yours. This space is a great opportunity to give a full background on who you are, what your team does, and what your site has to offer. Double click on the text box to start editing your content and make sure to add all the relevant details you want site visitors to know.
If you’re a business, talk about how you started and share your professional journey. Explain your core values, your commitment to customers, and how you stand out from the crowd. Add a photo, gallery, or video for even more engagement.
This program runs from Monday to Wednesday for in class learning supports, and focus time on student learning paths and plans. Thursdays and Fridays, students are engaged in self-study or off-site engaging in co operative learning opportunities within the community, or directing their business operations.
The School of Purpose is designed to accommodate ages 14 to 21 years. This broader range of ages is greater than most government high school programs for the following reasons:
1. Every learner is ready for their next step at their own pace. Graduation from this program is about readiness rather than age.
2. Everyone learns in their own way and at their own pace. By allowing participation in our program for 7 years, we are able to be more inclusive of community members who need this to be successful.
3. Learning at this stage in life is about personal, business, and skill mastery. These areas create the foundation of our program focus.
