Crescent School

One of the top independent schools for boys in Canada, Crescent School spans 37 acres in midtown Toronto. Now in our second century, we provide rich and diverse experiences and opportunities for boys in Grades 3–12 to learn, grow and thrive.

Character has always been at the centre of a Crescent education supporting our mission, Men of Character from Boys of Promise.

Our Mission

Crescent’s mission, Men of Character from Boys of Promise, recognizes that boys with curious minds and open hearts have the potential to develop in a manner that will fit their mission in life, whatever it might be.

Our exceptional staff of learners and leaders nurtures the intellectual, moral and social development of each of our boys; and our inclusive community of alumni, parents and friends is fully engaged supporting a diverse and rigorous learning environment.

Our Values

There are four core values that are demonstrated daily, in our behaviours and our interactions.

Respect

Students are taught that respect of oneself, one’s peers, teachers, family, our community and our environment, is at the heart of everything we do at our school.

Responsibility

Students learn the importance of taking responsibility for one’s actions.

Honesty

Students are strongly encouraged to think and act in truth.

Compassion

Students are instructed to treat others the way they want to be treated.
