2009 Welcome to Karen Kain School of the Arts At Karen Kain School of the Arts (KKSA) our curriculum is delivered within an Arts Focused Approach, in a safe and caring atmosphere. This will enable our community of students to adapt to a changing world, become champions of the environment and responsive to global and social issues. We will do this by emphasizing thinking, communication and problem-solving skills while developing an appreciation and love of the Arts. Karen Kain School of the Arts (KKSA) opened its doors as a TDSB school on September 2, 2008. A middle school, Karen Kain School of the Arts is a unique Arts Focused school, named after the distinguished Canadian dancer, Artistic Director of the National Ballet of Canada and leader in the arts community. Our school provides a rich and relevant integrated educational experience while focusing on Drama, Dance, Visual Arts and Vocal Music. Located in a quiet, ravine setting in SW TDSB, KKSA is a very innovative and distinct educational experience. Wherever possible and practical, Drama, Dance, Visual Arts and Vocal Music are integrated and used to teach and reinforce the skills, knowledge and content within Ontario Curriculum expectations. We believe that this type of arts integration allows for a more student centered approach where teaching, learning and assessment can be aligned to accommodate the strengths, preferences and learning styles of the individual student. All students participate in all the Arts as curriculum subjects. Arts integration and a generalist approach to the Arts is what differentiates the curriculum and teaching strategies at Karen Kain School of the Arts The goal at KKSA is to provide each student with an experience which allows them to achieve while tapping into their knowledge and talent in the Arts. It is our expectation that our students at Karen Kain School of the Arts will continue to gain expertise in Drama, Dance, Visual Arts and Vocal Music, and that they will also become life long supporters and enthusiasts of the Arts. The Karen Kain School of the Arts student population is made up of those Metropolitan Toronto students who went through the application process and were successful in gaining acceptance. The admission process is open only to those students who are currently in grade 5 and looking for acceptance into grade 6 at Karen Kain School of the Arts.

  • Contribution to Dance (1964-2019)
    VERONICA TENNANT, C.C. Contribution to DANCE in CANADA 1964-2018 During her illustrious career as Principal Dancer with The National Ballet of Canada, Veronica Tennant won a devoted following on the national and international stage as a dancer of versatility and dramatic power. At 18, the youngest Principal Dancer in the company Tennant was chosen by Celia Franca and John Cranko, for her debut as Juliet. She went on to earn accolades in every major classical role as well as having several contemporary ballets choreographed on her. She was chosen by, and worked with the legendary choreographers: Sir Frederick Ashton, Roland Petit, Erik Bruhn, John Neumeier and Jiri Kylian – and she in turn nurtured a younger generation of Canadian choreographers including James Kukelka, Anne Ditchburn, Constantin Patsalas and David Allan. For 25 years she danced across North and South America, Europe and Japan, dancing with the greatest male dancers of our time including; Erik Bruhn, Rudolf Nureyev, Anthony Dowell, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Edward Villella, Fleming Flindt, Peter Schaufuss, Niels Kehlet, Fernando Bujones, Ivan Nagy, Jean Pierre Bonnefous and Richard Cragun. She was blessed with her Canadian partners, from Earl Kraul (her first Romeo), to Lawrence Adams, Glenn Gilmour, Frank Augustyn, Sergiu Stefanschi, Kevin Pugh, Rex Harrington and Raymond Smith (her tenth Romeo). Two of the CBC television performances with Tennant in the title role; Cinderella and The Sleeping Beauty, won Emmy Awards. Her first, in Norman Campbell’s 1965 production of Romeo and Juliet won Le Prix Barthelmy in Monte Carlo. Veronica Tennant gave her farewell performances in 1989 – dancing her signature role in, Romeo and Juliet and in the Gala – A Passion For Dance – Celebrating the Tennant Magic.
