Pretty River Academy is a Collingwood, Ontario independent school operating for 28 years in the Georgian Bay region, delivering K-12 education to families in Southern Georgian Bay and the surrounding area. With 96.8% of $2.76M in expenditures flowing to programs but a recent revenue dip from $3.12M to $2.56M producing a deficit year, this is a mature independent school navigating an enrollment or funding transition that is drawing down reserves by design.
Our Verdict: Pretty River Academy is an established Collingwood independent school with exceptional program spending and a clean 28-year track record, though donors should note the school is currently running a FY2025 deficit as enrollment or revenue normalizes from a recent peak — the reserves support the transition.
