The school offers full credit courses for current secondary students, academic upgrading, newcomers, language instruction and skills programs.
"At Thomas Merton, we take great pride in supporting our students academically by creating a learning environment that is inclusive, welcoming, and safe. More specifically, we are committed to creating academic opportunities for a better tomorrow," says Dr. Gino Montanari, Principal of the Thomas Merton Centre for Adult & Continuing Education.
"We understand that our students come to Thomas Merton with a variety of rich life experiences and that they want a school that provides a unique approach, tailored to the needs of each learner. This is what we provide through our Adult Day Credit Program every single day."
Montanari adds, "Our two-step online registration process allows students and their families to seek advice from our experienced guidance counsellors. The counsellors can help create custom learning plans for our students based on their needs."
Interested students and their families can attend an Open House on Tuesday, October 17, 2023 from 4-6 p.m. at the Thomas Merton Adult and Continuing Education Centre located at 255 Modern Road in Oakville.
