Announcing Sport-Études at Kells

Joint sports academic program

Attention Athletes! Kells Academy is launching a Sport-Études program for grade 7 and 8 students in the Fall of 2025. This is thanks to the recommendation of Kells parent Joane Siksous, whose son is a competitive soccer player who will be returning to Kells next year to join the inaugural Kells Sport-Études cohort. Sport-Etudes is a specialized educational program, designed for elite athletes who are pursuing high-performance athletic training while also completing their academic studies.

Endorsed and recognized by the Quebec Ministry of Education, in partnership with provincial sports federations, the Sport-Etudes program is unique in North America. Our plan is to welcome 25 students each year and offer these selected student-athletes the option to balance rigorous athletic training with their schoolwork, ensuring that they can excel in both areas. Key features of the program will include flexible schedules, personalized support and partnerships with sports organizations.

This new program is yet another way that Kells Academy will empower its student athletes to succeed academically while also pursuing excellence in their sport, thus giving them the foundation to continue both to the next level of competition and higher education.
