A Tradition of Excellence.
A Future of Limitless Potential.
For more than a century, Garrison Forest School has been a place where students are encouraged to lead, create and innovate. We have remained committed to our mission of preparing students to thrive—in the classroom, in their communities, and in a rapidly changing world.
Guided by our motto, Esse Quam Videri, To Be Rather Than To Seem,
we bring excellence and joy to teaching and learning and are proud of our joyful, welcoming community.


More Than Academics
At Garrison Forest, education goes beyond academics. It’s about building confidence, fostering curiosity, and embracing a spirit of service and leadership. With a unique combination of coed early childhood education and an all-girls experience from Kindergarten through Grade 12, we empower students to discover their strengths and forge their own paths.
