Message from the Founders

Bob & Emmy Garon
GVS Co-Founders

Welcome to Golden Values School!

GVS is more than just a school. It is a formation house where values and right living are as important as the teaching of academics.

Having spent many years as consultants to corporations, we have seen highly educated men and women fail because of ill-advised behavior, twisted thinking and an absence of true values. With this in mind, we founded GVS. We wanted a school that would focus as much on the spiritual, the emotional and the values training as well as on the teaching of academics. In this we are convinced, we have succeeded.

The small classes and our continued focus on our priorities ensure personalized attention to our children. We know them well and are quick to respond when we observe behavior that is unhealthy and could lead to trouble in the future.

In line with this concern, we work closely with our parents. They are kept appraised of the values and emotional development of their children as well as the academic progress they are making. No surprises at the end of the school year.

Because of our experience in working with troubled youths over the years (rehabilitation of drug dependents and those with attitudinal and behavioral problems) we are quick to focus on children who are potential problems. We get them the help they need.

This balance of academics and values training is what we are all about. If this is your concern, you will feel at home in Golden Values School.

A school born out of love of concerned parents, for their first child… that's how Golden Values School came about. I feel very blessed having parents who were so concerned about my values formation and academic performance, that they put up a school fit for me.

I can proudly say that I am the person I am today because of the values and learning I acquired in the school my parents carefully put together to find the right balance of proper attitudes and academics. As my father would always say, "It's not the smartest people who make it in life… rather it's those who have the right attitudes."

I made it a mission in life to help mold the young into well-rounded individuals in the future. That is why as the future head of my alma mater, I will hope for every child to gain a chance of experiencing "the GVS way of life". For sure, that child will not just be a number in Golden Values
