Principal’s Message

Wales College’s vision is to “be the best high school in Canada,” and we are committed to helping each and every student realize their full potential. Our students’ academic aspirations become joint goals for our staff and students to work towards and achieve together. From the first day that a student enters our college, through to graduation, we are dedicated to each student’s individual success.

Our teaching staff is in constant touch with leading universities to be certain that the university entrance standards can be met and surpassed by Wales College students. Our gidance staff works with our students to ensure that they take the most appropriate

University Preparation Courses, thereby enabling them to not only enter the university of their choice but also obtain entrance scholarships.

When our graduates leave Wales College to enter university, we remain in touch with them to offer encouragement and any assistance required as they continue on their academic journey. We believe that our role is not finished until our graduates complete their university program.

Sincerely,

Mr. Marcus Tabachnick, Director
