Since 2003 Beaconhouse has operated ministry inspected, licensed and approved high schools focused on helping students obtain the Ontario high school credits they need for their Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). Our founders’ vision was to provide an alternate school to students at an economical cost. Working with small groups of students, we have been successful in enabling them to meet the high expectations of admissions into the best universities and colleges. We specialize in helping students get the university and college offers they seek. How do we do this? Our students have success in getting university offers because we provide the flexibility and choice they need. Students can choose to study part time or full time with us. With small, flexible classes and the focused assistance required to excel academically.
