THE STAFF

FACE is a unique, one-of-a-kind school in Quebec. Located for more than 30 years in the old Montreal High School, an historic building possessed of an old-world charm in the heart of the City, our school welcomes students to elementary and secondary classes, where Francophones and Anglophones alike share the premises and the program in a joyous and healthy cohabitation. The young soon grow older and they never hesitate to lend a hand to the wee ones.

Students follow classes in their mother tongue, although all students are grouped together for instrumental music and vocal classes and during extracurricular and social activities. From kindergarten to Grade 11, the Fine Arts Program allows students to adapt to 4 artistic disciplines : visual arts, theatre/drama, vocal and instrumental music. Those more gifted or motivated are able to showcase their talents in complementary activities such as the jazz band, the symphony orchestra, the FACE young singers, plays, etc. It is important to note that not all students are comfortable in such an intense and demanding program.

The aim of the program is not to train professional artists but rather to assist students in their development and help them thrive, so as to better succeed in their education. The Arts are an excellent learning ground for developing personal discipline, determination, and the growth of a sense of achievement and self-confidence, so vitally important for the student’s character. In a world becoming more and more technical and complex, it is the school’s obligation to offer a program that is above and beyond basic disciplinary learning. It is essential to challenge students and show them examples of human creativity and intelligence.

In 1997, FACE was awarded the ESSOR prize from the Ministry of Education for excellence in its artistic program. Each year our students receive prizes and gold medals during artistic competitions and demonstrations (Kiwanis Music Festival, Montreal Music Fest, etc.).

Success at FACE is an important stepping stone to the best CEGEPs and universities. Our students have gone on to rewarding careers in the sciences, medicine, the humanities, etc. as well as in the arts. Despite our heavy schedules, we manage to set aside a good amount of time for extracurricular activities such as sports, danse classes, etc.

The stability of our staff and their commitment contribute greatly to the sense of belonging and security that prevails in our School.

Finally, we must stress how the involvement of parents is one of the winning factors for our students. Their convictions and the importance they attach to the value of education only brings a heightened appreciation for the success of this unique project.

What do students take away from their FACE experience ?
There is definitely a FACE profile : A FACE alumnus is eloquent, responsible, committed and creative, but first and foremost, he or she is a student with a heart !
