It is the first year of the Graduation program, so it is helpful to think about your course selection in the context of your future goals. You should begin to consider not only your overall career plans, but also the specific courses required for graduation and admittance to post-secondary education. This is your opportunity to begin to make choices about your future. It makes a difference. NOTE: Two new Math 10 courses are called Apprenticeship and Workplace Math 10 (AWM10) and Foundations of Math 10 and Pre-Calculus (FMP10). These courses replace Principles of Math 10, Essentials of Math 10 and Applications of Math 10. DESK will offer both of the new Math 10 courses online starting in September, 2010. You may register for these courses then. GRADE 11The grade 11 program is a continuation of the choices you initiated in grade 10, and the second year of the graduation program. Often considered the most challenging year in terms of workload, Grade 11 affords students the opportunity to solidify their choices and further refine a career direction. Specifically, students will need to plan their grade 11 program with consideration of prerequisites for acceptance in to grade 12 courses. For example, if you require Physics 12 for acceptance into an Engineering program, then you will need to register in Physics 11 as part of your grade 11 program. GRADE 12Grade 12 offers students a wide variety of choice to conclude their studies. In the final year of the graduation program, there is an opportunity to polish your portfolio, make adjustments for changing interests, and make educational choices that will help facilitate a smooth transition to your chosen post secondary path. |
