ABOUT JAYA
Jaya International High School (JIHS) combines traditional teaching with 21st century vision to build a pathway to success. JIHS prepares its students to become successful participants in both Canadian society and globally. At JIHS we teach students to become lifelong learners. JIHS’ holistic approach to education includes: Judgment, Critical Thinking, Literacy, Cooperation, and Social Responsibility.
Education is ultimately the vehicle that drives societies and communities to prosper and succeed. We live in a knowledge-based society, where the continuous collection and understanding of information becomes essential in order to succeed in this ever-changing global economy. One has to constantly update his/her skills and abilities of interpreting and understanding informations. Secondary education allows an individual to obtain the fundamental skills and abilities necessary to understand complex information. It provides them with the analytical skills necessary to pursue a wide-range of career objectives. At JIHS, our approach to learning is one that emphasizes the individual. Each student will not only receive assistance during classroom hours, but he/she will also receive one-on-one tutoring after school and on weekends. Our aim is to ensure that each student has strong understanding of the fundamental concepts learned in each class. Our teachers understand the importance of not leaving a single student behind in his/her academic studies. We do our utmost to ensure that students succeed in school.
