What the numbers mean.

Looking for a top STEM school in the GTA? Whether your priority is a top math school, a top physics school or a top neuroscience school, published results are a useful starting point. Laureates Academy’s record spans mathematics, physics, astronomy and astrophysics, and the Toronto Brain Bee.

The results below name the year, contest and type of achievement. School-team standings are not an overall ranking of schools, and individual results are not a promise of future outcomes.

Laureates contest teams draw on our day school and after-hours learning community.

A record built over time.

In Laureates Academy’s early years, our student cohort was mainly in kindergarten and the early elementary grades. Those young learners have grown with the school, taking on new mathematical challenges as they have moved through the grades.

Our contest successes have grown with them: first Gauss, then Pascal, followed by Cayley and Fermat. Behind that progression are students deepening their understanding and tackling contests one by one, one step at a time.

As this cohort reaches the senior grades, we look forward to seeing their progress in Euclid and the Canadian Open Mathematics Challenge (COMC), building on Laureates’ wider contest record.

This historical award is part of our story, not a substitute for current results. Our latest selected standings appear above with their publication years and source documents.

Physics, astrophysics
& Brain Bee results.

Physics

2026 · 3rd, 10th and 16th. Three Laureates students placed in the top 20 of the Canadian Association of Physicists (CAP) High School Exam.

From Grade 11
to new possibilities.

Erfan joined Laureates from Iran in Grade 11 with strong interests in mathematics and physics. Alongside soccer, basketball and volleyball, he explored arts and music.

With Dr. K’s guidance and connections, he was hired as a University of Toronto researcher while in Grade 11 and invited to Waterloo’s EMACS camp as a Fermat high achiever.

He received computer science offers from the University of Toronto, Waterloo and McMaster, choosing McMaster with a reported $120,000 scholarship.

Achievement is only part of the picture.

Students also make, perform and contribute. Our homepage shares their two-hour garment-design challenge and student-led tree planting, alongside their academic journeys.

These school-reported stories show dimensions of learning that a contest table cannot capture.
