Dual Credit Academic Info Night
Dual Credit Academics
Students in grade 11 may sign up to take one or more first year college courses, or a certificate program that supports them in transitioning into a career, or down a career pathway. There are many courses and certificate programs available through North Island College that provide smaller class sizes and have supportive instructors who are keen to engage new learners in areas of passion.
On February 3rd, Dawn Anderson, along with colleagues and community members, will be presenting via zoom that will elaborate on how Dual Credit opportunities could benefit you and your child. There will be time for questions, as well as NIC staff on camera to engage in meaningful conversations around how this might be a great fit for you and/or your child.
ADST Projects in Grades 4-7
One our goals this year is to support teachers and provide learning opportunities for students in grades 4-7 to take part in a variety of hands on learning projects. We have been working hard to design teacher guides and build toolboxes so that all elementary school students can learn how to use hand tools and explore creating, ideating and designing. Teachers will be provided with training, lessons and resources for a variety of project, here are a few:
Grade 4: Planter/Pollinator Boxes
