Our Purpose

Foundation Constitution

To provide education programs and services that are arts-infused.

How We Bring This Purpose to Life

The Foundation advances education by establishing and operating an arts-focused school that fully meets the standards and requirements of the BC Ministry of Education and Child Care.

We achieve this through:

A full academic program from Kindergarten to Grade 9

Safe and inspiring learning spaces during school hours (8:00 AM – 4:00 PM)

Additional student support services

Before- and after-school extracurricular programs

Arts- and science-based summer camps

Community-focused learning opportunities and events

Every program is designed to inspire creativity, curiosity, and meaningful connection.

Board Committees

Much of the Board’s important work is carried out through specialized committees that guide operations, growth, and governance:

  • Executive Committee
  • Finance Committee
  • Facilities Committee
  • Governance Committee
  • Development Committee
  • Education Committee
  • Nomination Committee

Our Foundation: The Heart of ArtsCalibre Academy

ArtsCalibre Academy is proudly operated by the ArtsCalibre Foundation, a registered, not-for-profit society in British Columbia. Our Foundation exists for one purpose:

to provide innovative education that intentionally infuses the Arts into every aspect of learning.

A Community-Led School

Our school’s families are more than participants, they are members of the ArtsCalibre Foundation. Through this membership, parents and guardians help uphold our mission, strengthen our programs, and support the future of our students.

Board of Directors

The School is autonomously governed by a Board of Directors elected by Foundation members. Our Board is committed to transparency, accountability, and ensuring the long-term educational and financial health of the school.
