Head of School Welcome
Our School
Dear AvH Community,
I am pleased to welcome you and all new families joining us at AvH!
Our common goal at AvH is to provide our students with a rich learning environment. In doing so, the health, safety and well-being of students and staff is a top priority.
Let us work together to make AvH a place where students enjoy learning and delight in coming to school.
All the best,
Dr. Martin Braun
Principal
International School – Three Languages – Two School Diplomas
AvH is a member of a network of over 140 German schools abroad. In 2012, we were awarded the official “Excellent School Abroad” seal of approval by the German government. We are recognized by the Ministère de l’Éducation et de l’Enseignement supérieur du Québec. Therefore, we can offer two degrees: the internationally respected and globally recognized German International baccalauréat (Abitur), which allows a seamless transition to university studies, as well as the Quebec Secondary School Diploma, which leads to CEGEP. Our school’s academic success is clearly reflected in the fact that our graduates go on to the world’s leading universities.
Since its founding in 1980, AvH has been educating students of German, Canadian and international origin. Our graduates acquire a wide range of skills and competencies and they master three languages: German, French and English. All this prepares them especially well for the challenges of our global world.
