About CSS Kelowna

Canadian Sport School Kelowna
Canadian Sport School Kelowna (CSS Kelowna) offers a half-day program in which student-athletes spend half the day at their regular high school taking required academic courses, and half their day with the Canadian Sport School.

CSS Kelowna provides an opportunity for student-athletes in grades 10-12 to use school hours to earn academic credit for:

  • Physical training through the IGNITE™ Athlete Development Program – Developing athleticism and new skills in the following areas; Strength Training, Sprint Training and basic gymnastics movements.
  • Independent Study Blocks – Daily time for homework completion, quiet study or online learning.
  • Sport Performance Seminars – Weekly seminars in the areas of high performance will support the students’ athletic knowledge and development towards success

The Canadian Sport School facilitates a high performance culture amongst like-minded athletes while providing support, coordination and advocacy between student-athletes and their high school teachers and sport coaches.
