EDUCATION EMPOWERS

Empowering the next generation of gifted BIPOC students by providing access to world-class education that will meet their needs, interests, passions, and the demands of global job markets.

Our Values are grounded in pride, community, competition, and
excellence.

Mission

The mission of Sacred Ground Foundation is to provide a professional and conducive learning environment to its high-potential Canadian BIPOC students to transform them into high-performing world citizens.

Sacred Ground Foundation takes a unique and innovative approach to blending nature and nurture. Students' natural, raw skills will be identified through pre-enrollment testing, assessments, and behavioural interviewing. Once a student within the Sacred Ground Foundation, students experience personalized and focused teaching processes, to refine their raw skills into efficient and productive outputs.

Vision

Sacred Ground will be a diverse, BIPOC-focused private school focused on developing an inclusive community of learning for gifted Canadian and Caribbean students. Sacred Ground Foundation’s vision reflects its values: pride, community, competition, and excellence.

Our Goal

Sacred Ground Foundation is the overarching organization that enables Sacred Ground Program – the learning content and mentorship, Sacred Ground Academy – the physical institution, and Sacred Ground Residence – the housing, for tomorrow’s leaders.

The overall business goal is to establish Sacred Ground Academy as the leading private school within the BIPOC community. Sacred Ground Academy aspires to be amongst the top one hundred (100) independent schools in Canada within the first ten (10) years of operations. Canada currently has over seventeen hundred (1,700) independent schools. Sacred Ground Academy will be the “safe” home away from home for the students of Sacred Ground Academy.

SCIENCES
The BIPOC community’s brightest scientific and technological minds will be molded to advance these natural agricultural elements of hydro, geothermal, wind, and solar power, into profitable, sustainable fiscal revenue.
ARTS
The BIPOC community has a rich history of music, dance, crafts, and painting. The disciplines of songwriting, music production, costume production, event planning, fashion design, textile manufacturing, graphic design, and advertising will be foundation disciplines within Sacred Ground.
ATHLETICS
The BIPOC community produces high-performing athletes. The lack of resources, discipline, nutritional guidance, and experience force these athletes to rely on their natural, uncultivated gifts. This situation puts them at a substantial disadvantage when competing against students from middle to upper-class neighbourhoods. This literally levels the playing field.
BUSINESS
Growing up in the BIPOC community, many students are taught to strive to be doctors or lawyers – or work for the government. Small and medium-size enterprise is lagging in the BIPOC community. Mentors and role models are present, yet dormant. Young entrepreneurs and those with business minds need to be cultured so they can learn best practices of business from local, regional, and global success stories.
ENGINEERING
Necessity breeds ingenuity. The creative minds of many BIPOC youths are fostered by simply not having much and needing to fix “old stuff” or build replica goods because they can’t afford the original items they see in mainstream media. By molding their minds with international applied engineering practices - the future of what they can produce when they have the technology and guidance is tantalizing.
