YOUR EDUCATION
Your Way

Learn what you want, when you want, where you want, and how you want

The Dandelion Cafe & Student Achievement Centre is an alternative to public education; it’s an inclusive co-study space and achievement center for Ottawa youth ages 12+,  offering a wealth of services, resources, programming, and activities. We believe in holistic and student-led learning, where students build towards their dream life, not just a career.

About The Dandelion Cafe

Our Mission is to create a dynamic space where students can work towards their goals and dreams on their own terms with the guidance and help of experienced professionals in an open-minded, inclusive, and affirming environment.
