Life @ Nova

Our students experience a unique and dynamic educational journey, both during and after school hours. Our focus is on fostering positive relationships between staff and students, creating a true sense of belonging within our school community. The comprehensive student support services provide an individualized approach to each student, further enhancing student learning and the sense of belonging to our diverse and dynamic community. 

Technology integration plays a significant role in enriching the learning experience. By incorporating technology tools into everyday lessons, students develop essential skills for problem-solving and critical thinking. Technology usage gives them a deeper understanding of the subject matter and prepares them for future challenges in a rapidly evolving digital world.

Our libraries serve as vibrant learning hubs, offering access to a wealth of resources and knowledge. They serve as collaborative spaces that promote curiosity, critical thinking, and creativity. Our resource specialists work closely with faculty to support research, reading, and learning across all subjects, making the libraries a key part of academic lives.

The arts are a cornerstone of our curriculum, and we encourage students to explore their creativity through music, visual arts, theater, and dance. These experiences help students build confidence, improve communication skills, and develop a deeper appreciation for culture and self-expression.

The Week Without Walls program is another essential aspect of the student's learning experience. This inquiry-based program offers exciting opportunities for students to understand the complexities of the world around them through experiential learning. By stepping outside the classroom, students engage in immersive experiences, collaborate with their peers, and connect with their environment. Week Without Walls helps students develop a global perspective and a deeper appreciation for different cultures.

The Houses Competition program is designed to engage all secondary students in friendly challenges, from sports and quizzes to creative competitions. This program strengthens school spirit by bringing our community together, ensuring that students, faculty, and support staff play a role in making our school a place where everyone feels at home.

NOVA students benefit from the multifaceted educational experience that emphasizes positive relationships, comprehensive support services, technology integration, library resources, artistic expression, and experiential learning. These elements work together to create a vibrant and engaging learning environment that prepares students for future success and fosters a strong sense of belonging within the school community.
