All Grade 10 students attended an assembly that outlined the course selection process in addition to some of the considerations that should be factored into decision-making. Choosing courses for Gr. 11 marks the formal beginning of planning for post-secondary. Students were given solid direction about the importance of choosing appropriate courses and those that are pre-requisites for Grade 12 courses needed for post-secondary planning. See the slide deck from the presentation below.
Please also encourage the following:
- all students should be checking their school GMail account a minimum of 2-3 times each week for importance updates or announcements
- all students should be connected to their grade-specific Google Classroom, created by the Guidance Department, for all the latest updates that pertain specifically to their grade level; parents can also join
- honest dialogue about course types to maximize opportunities for success
- planning and research about possible pathways options – teachers and guidance counsellors can help with this
Course selection, along with payment of the $50 Student Activity Fee (via School Day) is due on February 20th.
