- What are some of the things your program does to provide educational support?
- Students are responsible for managing their workload. Flexibility to accommodate the athletic schedule is provided. Students are encouraged to advocate for themselves and their own education. Mount Academy is a preparatory school, where students are expected to perform at post-secondary levels upon graduation. As a result, students are encouraged to be as productive as possible during the school day. In order to achieve at a high level, students also need to be working outside of class time on homework, reading, organizing and so forth. Students are expected to keep up with their school work while traveling, and coaches will provide students with support and structured study time during team trips.
- Students are expected to adhere to course deadlines, and submit their work on time. However, faculty may exercise discretion to grant extensions in exceptional circumstances, such as unforeseen emergencies, medical or technical issues.听 It is the responsibility of the student to petition faculty for consideration, preferably before the due date.
- How are grades monitored and how often?
- Each instructor creates their own syllabus and grading scheme, which will be provided on the first day of class. The syllabus is subject to changes throughout the term. Student work will be evaluated on an ongoing basis using both formative and summative assessments, and regular feedback will be provided. Students are expected to participate in class activities and encouraged to ask questions.

- Do you have an academic probation policy?
- Academic honesty is fundamental to our school philosophy. Violations of any form of lying, plagiarism, misrepresentation of work, purchasing documents, copying, or cheating is considered unacceptable. This includes passing in work created by ChatGPT or any other AI generator, work from other students, or submitting old assignments. Students are responsible for all work submitted and understand that any student violating this policy will receive an automatic zero on the work involved, and further disciplinary action may also be taken. Flagrant, persistent or repeated incidences of cheating or plagiarism can result in suspension, expulsion from the school, or denial of readmission. Such cases will be reviewed by the disciplinary committee.
