Education for the 21st Century

The school, semestered and co-educational, delivers an academically rigorous curriculum in a structured environment. At CCI, one of Italy's top private boarding high schools, all students live in residence. This learning and living at CCI unfolds in Italy, home of the Renaissance and the starting point of today's knowledge-based civilization. Students directly experience antiquity, the middle ages, the Renaissance and modern Europe, both formally, through regular organized trips with the school, and informally, through daily life in a modern town sensitively aware and conserving of its more than 3,000-year history. Entering students take introductory Italian, which they early recognize makes town life feasible, and soon, for many, pleasant and friendly.

Students follow a challenging university-preparation academic curriculum, including Mathematics, Computers, Classical Civilization, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Social Science, English, Art and Drama. All courses are taught in English, except for Italian and French languages. The School offers grades 10 through high school graduation, and students may enroll for a single semester or for up to three academic years (two semesters per year). CCI is inspected by the province of Ontario, Canada, whose requirements parallel or exceed most other North American jurisdictions, and is a member of ECIS, the European Council of International Schools. We can say with confidence that CCI students attend one of the top private boarding high schools.

CCI selects its professional teaching staff, who all possess the required teacher's qualifications, for strength of commitment to, and interest and previous training in, their subject areas. They are chosen also for strong teaching capability, devotion to students' needs and interests both in and outside of school hours, and their willingness to assist and lead the extracurricular life of the school.

Our reputation among top private boarding high schools was built on our incomparable faculty. Since the school began, student awareness of and response to this professional interest and personal dedication has been very evident, and rewardingly expressed in sustained, and occasionally totally re-born, student commitment to studies and academic excellence. The overall teacher-to-student ratio of one-to-twelve ensures extensive individual attention is available for every student.
