Updates on Awards

Given the move to Standards-Based Assessment in Math 7 and Math 8, we will no longer be issuing Honours and Principal’s List certificates in the 2022-2023 school year. As well, we will no longer issue the Academic Achievement Award for the top 3 marks in each grade. Instead, we will be looking at awards that are Department-based that reflect the whole student and are NOT focused on grades. This is necessary as the system moves towards Standards Based Assessment in all grades.

School Reopens for students Wednesday, September 6, 2022.

Have a safe and relaxing summer!
