About Us
Who We Are |
Endeavour is an English-language Social Integration Services-based special education program for adult learners with disabilities which provides programming to over 200 students across the West Island. Our program is run through Place Cartier Adult Education Centre of the Lester B. Pearson School Board. We have also developed satellite programs in partnership with the West Montreal Readaptation Centre (WMRC/CROM) and the West Island Association for the Intellectually Handicapped (WIAIH). Most of our students live on the West Island, though our program is open to anyone who lives in or around Montreal. Our students benefit from small classes of 15-18 students, with 1 teacher and 1 special education technician or specialized educator in each class. Students who attend our on-campus programming have access to a full cafeteria, a student-run café, a gymnasium, a mock apartment, a soccer field, multiple full kitchens, and a flexible learning space.
What We Do |
Our teaching staff consists of Special Education Technicians, Integration Aides, and Teachers; each of our staff members has years of experience in the field of education, particularly in the unique context of teaching neurodiverse adult learners. Here's our teaching team:
Together, we support students in developing and honing skills in the following areas: art, computers, community awareness/engagement, fitness, food preparation/service, literacy, math, music, relationships, sexuality, and work skills. Ultimately, our goal is to guide students in becoming more autonomous in their lives, whether this means preparing them to take the bus, obtain employment, or live more independently.
