Co-Operative Education
Students who have secured a summer job may be eligible to earn a Co-operative Education credit while gaining work experience and skills relevant to their future careers.
This course requires students to attend the first three days of summer school (June 30 – July 2) virtually to complete the Health and Safety, Well-being, and Pre-placement requirements and attend one integration and one summative session. Students must work a minimum of 20 hours a week during the month of July to be eligible for the credit.
The Co-operative Education teacher will work with students and the employer to develop and implement a Co-operative Education Learning Plan and monitor student progress at their work placement.
On an individual basis, and in consultation with the school guidance counselor and co-operative education teacher, this course may be extended to August 14th, with the student earning two co-operative education credits.
* Co-Operative Education is available to students from across the district, depending on teacher availability.

NAC1O – Indigenous Summer Transition Program

This in-person Indigenous Summer Transition Program course is for current grade 8 students who will be going into grade 9 in September 2026. The course explores various arts disciplines (dance, drama, installation and performance art, media arts, music, storytelling, utilitarian or functional art, visual arts), giving students the opportunity to create, modify, present, and analyse art works, including integrated art works/productions, that explore or reflect First Nations, Métis, and Inuit perspectives and cultures. Students will examine the interconnected relationships between art forms and individual and cultural identities, histories, values, protocols, and ways of knowing and being. They will demonstrate innovation as they learn and apply art-related concepts, methods, and conventions, and acquire skills that are transferable beyond the classroom. Students will use the creative process and responsible practices to explore solutions to creative arts challenges.
