St. Timothy’s Classical Academy is an independent, classical, non-denominational Christian school (SK – Grade 8) located in Ottawa, ON.
We are excited to share our vision of Christian, classical education with you. St. Timothy’s is a unique school in Ottawa, and one of only a few of its kind in Canada. We have great plans for the future of our school, as we continue to provide more resources for our students, expand our school, and educate the wider Christian community on the benefits of a classical curriculum.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to equip the children of faithful Christian families with the classical tools of learning through an exceptional education rooted in the deep cultural and Christian heritage of Western civilization, enabling them to understand the past, engage the present, and form the future to serve God and neighbour to the best of their abilities.
OUR BELIEFS
This is a difficult question for many Christian parents. You have invested so much in your children while they are young, planting seeds of faith and learning. And now you must decide where they will spend their days, continuing in that journey.
You are looking for strong academics; a place that values passing on the essential tools to learn any subject, along with cultivating Godly habits of heart, mind and work. You also desire a school where children can ask questions, make connections, and feel confident in finding the truth.
You hope for a place where children can learn to be a light to the world, and where they are surrounded by and learn to seek and create beauty.
As Christians you desire an environment where goodness, kindness, and respect are expected, scripture is embraced, and Christ is glorified.
Like you, at St. Timothy’s we are focused not just on what children are learning, but who they are

The resurgence of classical, Christian education began in the U.S. in the early 1990s, and has met with great success. Several Ottawa families decided to explore the possibility of opening a Christian elementary school in Ottawa that would follow the classical method of instruction.
The school was also inspired by the educational approach of Augustine College, a one-year Christian liberal arts post-secondary school program in Ottawa. St. Timothy’s opened its doors in September, 2004, with 11 students in grades 1 – 4, and has been growing ever since.
