2020/2021 Recognition Ceremony

We, at Boost Academy, take great pride in celebrating the accomplishments of our students. While we would have loved to host an in-person celebration, we had to work within the parameters of the Emergency Orders and come up with an alternative plan. If the pandemic has taught us anything, it is that we must always be able to think on our feet and be fluid with plans. As with everything we do, we assess and we adapt. We hope you enjoy this compilation of student projects and celebration of achievements.

Fortunately, within the scope of the Emergency Orders, we were able to host an intimate graduation dinner on June 24th at a nice restaurant wherein we enjoyed the company of several of our graduates and their families, and had the opportunity to discuss the students' growth over the years, as well as their next steps in the attainment of future goals. A great time was had by all!

We are proud of the growth exhibited by all students who showed up everyday and faced the challenges of pandemic schooling head-on! With universal issues in education during the course of the pandemic, we are pleased to have been able to deliver classes seamlessly and to have had such great support from home during virtual learning. Moving into the 2021/22 school year, we remain hopeful that the pandemic will continue to ease up so that our children will be able to resume a level of normalcy within their academic and social lives.
