"Quit ye like men, be strong."

St. Andrew’s College (SAC) is an independent, all-boys preparatory school for Grades 5-12. Founded in 1899 and located 40 minutes north of Toronto in the town of Aurora, our 126-acre campus is home to a mix of more than 650 boarding and day students from 25-plus countries. SAC offers a rigorous academic curriculum with multiple Advanced Placement (AP) opportunities and a rich, activity-based educational environment. A wireless laptop program adds to the learning experience, incorporating the latest technology into the classroom. We welcome boys from around the world with strong academic backgrounds who also want to become active members of our community. 

As set out in our mission statement, SAC’s academic program is complemented by a wide range of co-curricular activities designed to develop “the complete man, the well-rounded citizen.” All boys participate in our extensive athletic (71 teams across 22 sports) and leadership programs. Many of our students also choose to participate in SAC’s internationally acclaimed arts, drama, and music programs and are active in photography, broadcast journalism, robotics, community outreach, and more. A St. Andrew’s education is like no other. Graduates gain entry to top universities in Canada, the U.S., and abroad and are renowned for their strong values, dedication to community, lasting achievements, and lifelong friendships. 

As a progressive learning institution, SAC has opened a partner school for girls, St. Anne’s School (SAS), which offers a warm and inspirational environment for girls to build character, own their voice, and strive for distinction. Offering a similar program in a day school environment, St. Anne’s sets the foundation for a lifetime of self-discovery, sparks a passion for knowledge, and prepares young women to build a better world.
