📣 Registration is open for the 2026 Entry to School program!

Kingston and Belleville families, ACT Learning Centre and Stride Academy have partnered to bring you the ETS program.

The Entry to School Program was created to help autistic children prepare for a successful transition to kindergarten or Grade 1. This is achieved through supporting skill development in six main areas within a group-based, half-day program implemented by a multidisciplinary team.

Today, we pause to honour the brave men and women who have served our country, both past and present. Their courage, sacrifice, and dedication to protecting our freedoms inspire us all.

At Stride Academy, we are reminded of the importance of community, compassion, and resilience – values that mirror the strength and sacrifice of those who have fought for our peace.

On this Remembrance Day, we reflect, we remember, and we say thank you. Your service will never be forgotten.

Today, Stride Academy joins the nation in observing Truth and Reconciliation Day, a day of reflection, education, and action. It is a time to acknowledge the painful history and legacy of residential schools in Canada and honor the resilience, strength, and courage of Indigenous peoples.

As an institution committed to fostering an inclusive and respectful learning environment, Stride Academy encourages families, staff, and the community to take this moment to listen, learn, and reflect. The journey towards truth and reconciliation requires understanding the past, embracing the present, and actively working toward a future where all peoples are treated with dignity and respect.

Together, let’s walk towards healing, understanding, and unity.

🎉 Celebrating 4 Years of Service! 🎉

Today marks 4 incredible years since we opened our doors—and what an honour it has been! We are beyond grateful for the privilege of supporting children and youth in our community, helping them grow, learn, and thrive through high-quality, compassionate behavioural services.

We could not do this meaningful work without the dedicated and talented team standing beside us every step of the way. Pictured here are just some of our amazing staff members whose passion and commitment make all the difference. 💙

Thank you to our families, community partners, and staff for trusting us, growing with us, and believing in what we do. Here’s to many more years of making meaningful change—together. 💫
