I am so happy we chose to enroll at Veritas Collegiate Academy. It feels like a family here. I am so pleased with the structure my child has at Veritas and they stay busy after school with a wide variety of clubs and sports.

Limited sports and Cafeteria food is not good. More school activities are needed. Also need more support on SAT and TOFlE for students. Too strict on dress-code. But teachers are passionated to help students they take really good care for the students.

However because of how small it is, it may not be so great for kids who need A new feel coming everyday to school
