Why choose us?
Our school is with students every step of the way
We've seen little hands become confident voices, and curious minds become bold thinkers. we walk alongside our students guiding, supporting, and celebrating every milestone along the way.
Where it all begins. A safe and playful environment where young minds explore through imagination and discovery. Here, we nurture early social and emotional growth, helping children build the confidence to learn, share, express themselves, and form meaningful first relationships. Every small step lays the foundation for a lifelong love of learning.
Elementary school is where children begin to build strong academic, emotional, and social foundations that support lifelong growth. These formative years are filled with curiosity, steady development, and self-discovery. Students learn to navigate friendships, recognize their unique learning styles, and gain confidence in expressing themselves.
It's a transformative time when students deepen their understanding and prepare for future academic and personal goals. We encourage critical thinking, responsibility, and independence, helping them turn their potential into purpose. Through exploration, mentorship, and real-world learning, they begin shaping who they are and what they stand for.
Our school has long been dedicated to providing strong academic and personal development from early childhood through high school. Recognizing the importance of a complete educational journey, we have now extended our program to include Grade 12. This milestone reflects years of preparation and commitment to offering our students a well-rounded and continuous path, one that ensures they graduate fully equipped for their next chapter.

Growing in faith and friendship at JMC
"My time at JMC was a milestone in my journey. Having spent 12 years there, I formed valuable friendships that I still have today. JMC provided me with an environment that allowed me to flourish in my faith and develop my identity as a Muslim student in Quebec. Now a university student, I have unforgettable memories of my time at this school."

Occupational Therapy Student
JMC gave me wings to go further
"I attended JMC from 2000 to 2012, and it played a key role in my personal and professional development. We were empowered from a young age, encouraged to be enterprising, to collaborate and to contribute positively to our community, as was the case when the student newspaper was created in secondary 3. Today, as an occupational therapist, with a master's degree in occupational therapy from the Université de Montréal, after a stint at Cégep Brébeuf, I realize how much JMC gave me a solid foundation to build a committed and humane career."
Adib Boudaouara
Occupational Therapist
JMC’s values accompanied me all the way to university
"It is with great gratitude that I share my testimony as a former student of JMC School. This school has been a solid foundation in my educational and personal journey. The values, discipline, and support I received there accompanied me throughout my studies, until I graduated from Concordia University, where I studied mathematics and computer science. JMC has certainly contributed to shaping the person I am today."

If we want to, we can. If we don't want to, we look for excuses.
I studied at JMC from 2003 to 2015, from elementary to high school. I received an excellent academic foundation and valuable spiritual training. My religion teacher, Ms. Ghoussoun, inspired me greatly. Today, I am a religion teacher at the Turkish Community Center of Montreal (Diyanet) and I pass on to my students a striking quote from my math teacher: "If you want, you can. If you don't want, you look for excuses."
