Welcome to the 2024 - 2025 school year!

Student Surnames Guidance Counsellor

Guidance counsellors are available by appointment only. Students can fill out appointment slips in the guidance office. For parent consultations please email counsellors directly to arrange a phone call.
 
Course changes are very limited this year and must be for important academic reasons only. They are subject to availability and most will not be possible at this time. Reasons for a course change to be considered are:
 
- missing a prerequisite for any course
- did not take a summer school course as planned and need it added to your timetable
- did take an unplanned summer school course and need to replace it in your timetable
- course required for post-secondary plans
- pathway change (I.e. academic to applied). 
 
Please see your guidance counsellor if a change is necessary.
