UMCA’s history

Since its inception in 2003, UMCA Rich Tree Academy has quickly cemented its reputation as the leading private school situated in Vaughan, Ontario. The school was borne from a desire to create extraordinary learning environments to students in junior kindergarten right through to grade twelve.

UMCA is focused on delivering an innovative curriculum that is at the cutting-edge of the educational sector. Our staff have a proven track record of ensuring a quality educational experience for all of our students. We teach them the fundamentals of effective study and provide them with the skills they need to succeed in life.

UMCA warmly welcomes students from a wide range of backgrounds and provides them the opportunity to learn more about local and international history. These days, UMCA Rich Tree Academy is at the forefront of the education sector and a leader in creating model students that are also model members of society.

Our Philosophy

No two children are alike. As such, we believe in providing unique educational opportunities for our students. We strive to inspire and enhance each student's love of learning through a unique learning environment that has been proven effective. By meeting a child's individual needs, we encourage each student to pursue integrity and excellence. Our program demonstrates that education can be challenging and fun and we promote the idea that learning, community and innovation provides the path to success. UMCA addresses the need for academic, social and emotional learning opportunities, where teamwork, social skills and empathy are themes woven throughout all experiences.

What We Offer

We provide our students with the invaluable opportunity to learn and grow at their own pace and in areas which are most meaningful to them. Through junior kindergarten to grade 12, our students benefit from attentive teachers, an enriched curriculum, and a diverse, caring community. We are offering in-person education in addition to virtual schooling.

We have recently moved to a new location, the Kimel Family Education Center. This location provides students with the finest quality schooling available. We have large, spacious classrooms at the center as well as a pool, gym, and a wide range of other dedicated facilities.
