Collège Saint-Maurice

The school operates on a human scale, emphasizing values of respect, openness to others, and solidarity. It continues the tradition of excellence established by the Sisters of the Presentation of Mary, aiming to foster the development of students' physical, intellectual, social, and ethical dimensions. The school is committed to providing a safe and stimulating environment where innovative pedagogy is central to the learning experience.

The school offers two main academic pathways: the 'Odyssée+' program, which is an enriched curriculum focusing on languages (including Spanish) and global awareness, and the 'Explo' program, which allows students to choose a specific interest-based pathway in physical activities, visual arts, multimedia, or STIM. All students from the 1st to 3rd secondary years are equipped with a MacBook to support their digital learning. Additionally, the school provides three levels of English instruction—Core, Enriched, and English Language Arts (ELA)—to accommodate varying student aptitudes.

The school is a private, French-language educational institution that provides general secondary education leading to the attainment of the Diplôme d’études secondaires (DES). Its mission is to form generations of heart, head, and will who take their place and make the world a better place.

The school provides support for students, including the possibility of an adapted intervention plan (PIA) for those who require it. Teachers and staff are described as experienced and attentive to the needs of their students to ensure their success and well-being.

The school accepts applications for students entering the first year of secondary school, with priority recommended for those in their 5th year of primary school. Applications for 2nd through 5th secondary years are also accepted. The admission process involves an online application, an analysis of academic records (requiring a minimum final grade of 60% in previous courses), and an assessment of the alignment between the school's services and the student's needs. A non-refundable $50 fee is required for file processing, and a $200 non-refundable fee is required to reserve a place upon acceptance. The school also offers the Isabelle-Viens scholarship, which provides financial aid based on family need.

The school day runs from 9:00 to 15:42, with an opening time of 7:45 and a closing time of 18:00. The schedule includes five 60-minute periods, with a lunch break from 12:20 to 13:32. During the lunch period, the school offers various activities for students, particularly those in the first cycle.

The campus features modern and bright facilities designed to inspire students. It includes a 'Zone multimédia' with filming studios for multimedia projects and a creative laboratory known as the 'Génie Lab' for STIM-related activities. Students also have access to a gymnasium and a physical conditioning room.

The school provides a variety of student life activities, including sports and student life programs. All students from the 1st to 3rd secondary years participate in an elective activity held one afternoon every 15 days, with examples including cooking, sports, outdoor activities, sewing, drawing, and video production. Additionally, the school offers specific pathways within the 'Explo' program, such as physical activities, visual arts, multimedia, and STIM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics).
