School Notes:
- Since 1872, Stanstead College has provided a challenging academic program for boys and girls entering Grades 7 through 12 without distinction as to religion, race, language, national or cultural origin.
- Situated just north of the American border States of Vermont and New Hampshire in the beautiful Eastern Townships, the College offers a unique opportunity to experience the heritage and culture of Quebec through living and learning.
- By promoting a healthy lifestyle, fostering a strong sense of citizenship, and motivating students to become intellectually self-reliant, the faculty and staff encourage every student to reach his or her full potential.
- While the Stanstead College curriculum is recognized and accredited by the Ministry of Education of the Province of Quebec, the College retains independent control of academic standards and enrolment policies. As a result, students of any mother tongue may apply for admission without requiring a "Certificate of Eligibility".
- Stanstead brings together students from across Canada, the U.S., and abroad, forming a diverse community in which leadership, scholarship, and personal growth are fostered.
