ABOUT WEBBER ACADEMY

Webber Academy was incorporated in 1997 as a non-profit company with a mandate to be a high-quality, nondenominational, coeducational, university preparatory, accredited private school. Subsequently, Revenue Canada recognized Webber Academy as a charitable organization. All revenue generated goes directly back into the school and benefits our students.

The school is located in southwest Calgary overlooking the foothills and mountains to the west. The facilities consist of a Kindercentre for four and five-year-old students, a main campus building with two large gymnasiums for Grades 1-12, a modern Senior School Science Centre, a Performing Arts Centre with a 500-seat theatre, a 400-meter running track, a soccer field, and cross country trails through the aspens.

The Webber Academy Board and school faculty believe in:

  • Personal attention for each child

  • Creating an atmosphere where young people of many faiths and cultures feel equally at home

  • A high-caliber school whose graduates will have a positive influence on the world

At Webber Academy, we expect students to:

  • Care for themselves

  • Respect themselves and their peers

  • Respect their teachers, leaders and all adults

  • Honour their parents

  • Be truthful and honest

  • Work hard and use their talents and abilities

  • Speak well of others

  • Be loyal and trustworthy

  • Be courteous

  • Be cooperative and work as a team member

  • Honour our country’s heritage and place in the world

  • Be committed to principles

  • Reach their full potential

These are timeless values, honoured by all the world’s great religions. They are essential to becoming a whole person, developing integrity and building lasting relations with others.
