The Traditional Learning Centre uses teacher-directed instruction and character education to foster reflective thinking, continuous learning and responsible citizenship. It is a celebration of cultural diversity and commonly held values. The virtues-oriented school environment prepares students to meet the moral, technological and global challenges of the 21st century. This is an alternative program within the Calgary Board of Education, committed to providing an excellent academic program and character education to average and above average students.
The Traditional Learning Centre Program is offered for Grades 5, 6, 7 and 8 at Fairview School.
Although the Traditional Learning Centre is academically rigourous, it is not reserved for elite students. The program is designed for all students who are motivated to work with teachers and parents to thoroughly develop their ability to achieve excellence in a structured, virtues-oriented environment.
Here is a list of suggested grade 5 & 6 supplies. Individual teachers may require specific items.
