Back to School and New Student and Parent Orientation/Information Nights

In support of our students’ successful transitions to Grades 6 and 9, we invite parents/guardians to join us for upcoming Information & Scheduling Nights. During these evenings you will have an opportunity to:

  • Meet educators
  • Explore course requirements
  • Discover academic programs
  • Process the course selection and registration process
  • Review a sample schedule
  • Explore postsecondary opportunities
  • Ask questions and discuss so much more

We will update this page as new information becomes available.

Parents/guardians will also receive details from their child’s school. All dates are subject to change. Please check with your child’s school prior to the event to verify the event date and time.
