We use long term education strategies – our new Live-In school is a prime example – for youth to recover and earn high school credits quickly and strategically; benefitting from an educational approach that is highly attentive and encourages self-responsibility. We use physical activity and outdoor adventure as a key motivator. We teach Math and English curriculum and a host of other engaging credits. The character gains our students have made are proving to be profound and enduring. We also use group-education strategies in partnership with four schools located in some of Toronto’s highest risk neighbourhoods. The goal here is to help our school partners improve their own institutions. These schools send their highest needs kids to Boundless as a group, where they learn to lead, and after they return to Toronto, become re-engaged with the broader school community. They earn credits while doing so.
