At SCS, we recognize that healthy relationships in classrooms promote productive learning environments. Our staff endeavour to promote healthy relationships in every classroom. To this end, we offer students an opportunity to request friends they would like in their classes. While we cannot guarantee that every request will be honoured, our intent is to have requested friends together in at least one class each semester (homeroom or an option class). Please spend time discussing the friends that contribute to a positive learning environment for your child prior to completing this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScdUrhBBMjxUmzzVO6mHCCNZG9UTRpAXC2pLsPIywuziwKFuA/viewform

Requests to change classes in the fall will only be considered for extenuating circumstances only. Thank you for your understanding.

EIPS Career Pathways has developed an information board with volunteering and job opportunities for high school students.

Dual-Credit is the ability for students to take Post-Secondary courses while still in high school.

Students can earn three to five 30-level high school credits (depending on the program selected), and three university level transfer credits for any course they choose. Students may enroll in one or more great introductory courses that will serve as great exposure to Post-Secondary studies.

Courses have varied delivery methods and perquisites and may be enrollment dependent. For a list of courses and a more detailed description, please refer to the Dual Credit Course Handbook (WINTER) and register using the linked Pre-Registration Form.
