Wayne McKelvey's Welcome

A cordial welcome to those contemplating enrolment at Metropolitan Preparatory Academy.

I ask you to think about your future. To be successful, it’s essential to set obtainable goals and develop the ambition to achieve those targets. In other words, decide where you want to go and establish how much time and energy it will take to get there.

This may sound “corny”, but little happens unless you believe in yourself and what you are doing. You don’t want to look back on your life one day and dream about what could have been. Set inspiring goals and work toward them now. When doors to opportunity open, walk through without hesitation.

Consider our program if you are looking for a structured and caring environment. At Metro Prep Academy, we highly value involvement, new ideas and enthusiasm.

I wish the best to all students in the upcoming academic year.

Sincerely,

 

William (Wayne) McKelvey
Hons. B.A., M.A., Dip. Ed.

About Metro Prep Academy

In 1982 our principal, Wayne McKelvey, founded Metropolitan Preparatory Academy as a private, semestered, coeducational, Middle School (grades 7-8) and High School (grades 9-12) program for university-oriented students.

The school was started with the belief that educators possessing the right attitude can have a profound impact on a student’s life. Our strength lies in developing the whole individual, through the personal relationships established with students and their families.

Our Philosophy

We believe that young men and women flourish in a safe, inviting, learning atmosphere where they feel confident expressing their individuality, asking questions, and seeking the help they need to thrive. Because of this, Metro Prep operates without uniforms and with open faculty doors. In preparation for both university and future careers students are encouraged to trust their instincts and think both critically and creatively.

Our Mission

Metropolitan Preparatory Academy is committed to fostering the intellectual, physical, social and creative potential of university-oriented students through a supportive yet challenging academic environment.
