Voice Integrative School (VIS) is a non-denominational, co-educational, academic school for K through 8. We are an independent school that offers affordable tuition and after school programs throughout the year.

VIS was founded by educator Marie Lardino in 2000 to test the theory of Global Education on a school-wide level.

Throughout the years, VIS’ educational philosophy, formally known as global education has undergone its own evolution. However, our integrative pedagogical approach continues to be an issues-based and all-encompassing model that teaches the whole child. Moreover, we believe in maintaining a small community with a total enrollment never exceeding 80 students.

VIS fosters a strong sense of belonging and offers a challenging academic program that follows the overall expectations of the core subjects within the Ontario Curriculum. However, our students are encouraged to utilize critical thinking and analytical skills to investigate concepts in real-life contexts.

In addition, VIS offers a strong performing and liberal arts curriculum, as well as a dynamic sports program.

We pride ourselves on creating a learning environment that promotes academic challenge, personal leadership, responsible citizenship and the skills needed to learn for life.

OPEN HOUSES:

During our Open Houses, interested families will be informed about our philosophy including our Integrative Education approach. Families will be given a tour of our school while classes are in progress. They will also meet some of our teachers and students, and will be given a chance to ask questions.

If you are unable to attend one of our Open Houses, we also provide independent meetings with our Principal Kristin McCullough who will conduct a private tour of our school. 

Please RSVP (416) 691 4639 in advance and/or email us at vis@voiceintegrative.com should you wish to attend an Open House:

Wednesday, March 27th, from 6:30 – 7:30pm
Wednesday, April 24th, from 6:30 – 7:30pm
Wednesday, May 15th, from 6:30 – 7:30pm
Wednesday, June 19th, from 6:30 – 7:30pm

JUNIOR/SENIOR KINDERGARTEN:

This year, we have expanded our school to include the addition of full-day Junior and Senior Kindergarten. Should you be interested in enrolling your child in our Kindergarten program, we welcome you to attend an open house as per the above schedule.

Please Note: VIS’ integrative model of education is inclusive and respects the unique story behind each child. We foster a welcoming environment for children to grow into their own. What we do not do, is tell our students ‘what’ to think in relation to controversial social/political issues, and/or engage in specific topics that may best addressed in the home.
