Student Community Service
As stated in Ontario Secondary Schools, Grades 9 to 12: Program and Diploma Requirements, 1999 (OSS), every student must complete a minimum of 40 hours of community involvement activities as part of the requirements for an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). The purpose of the community involvement requirement is to encourage students to develop awareness and understanding of civic responsibility and of the role they can play and the contributions they can make in supporting and strengthening their communities. We encourage students entering grade 9 to complete this requirement as soon as they are able. In some cases, students have left this requirement until their final year of high school. We have contacted, by mail, the families of any students in grade 12 who have not yet fulfilled this requirement. If you have any questions, please contact our student services department at the school.
Student Support Opportunities
We have mindfulness sessions and study skills sessions available to students in the coming weeks. Please encourage your son/daughter to make use of this opportunity if they would benefit from the support.
