The Academy offers a safe space for students to explore a variety of interests and enjoy the process of learning. In this collaborative environment, students will learn to appreciate themselves, and others, for having unique strengths that can be utilized to accomplish BIG things.
Did You Know?
The development of soft skills is much more difficult than the development of hard skills because it requires actively interacting with others on an ongoing basis and being willing to accept behavioral feedback.

Support for YOU and Your Child
How The FUEL Academy Works
The FUEL Academy is an in-person space where like-minded students can collaborate, innovate and learn by taking on ventures (real-world projects they are interested in) while also having access to advanced tools, software and support.
Dream Bigger, Take Action
Each day your child will uncover new interests & discoveries that are designed to ignite their imagination and help them bringing their ideas to life!
Students will participate in assorted ventures, such as:
- Dilemma Discussions
- Group Field Experiences
- Portfolio Project Building
- Peer Led Instruction & Mentoring
- Team Committee Meetings
- Meditation & Mindfulness
Access Tools & Resources
As your child’s perspective expands, so will their need for tools, software and other helpful resources.
As students interests grow, so does The Fuel Academy’s Resource Centre.
Your child will enjoy access to:
- 3D printers
- Video & Photography Equipment
- Robotics Kits
- Design & Project Software
- And Much More!
Parent Communication
Your child’s growth and development are expedited when parents and FUEL Mentors are working towards the same goals.
Ongoing “team meetings” between FUEL Mentors, parents and students will occur each semester, as well as weekly emails sharing what students have been exploring.
Parents will also get to attend student led events, such as Showcases, Expos, and Market Days.
