Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find out about what courses I can pick in my course planner?

Click on the link to your home school from the list above. DDSB@Home counsellors will be updating this frequently, as resources from home schools are shared with us.

How can I get course selection support from a guidance counsellor?

Grade level counsellors will be available during open office hours twice per week during the lunch hour. Counsellors encourage you to pop by these sessions to ask quick or general questions. If you require more guidance or have more complicated questions, email your name and contact number to your assigned counsellor. The counsellor will email you back to confirm an appointment date and time.

What is the deadline to submit course selections?

You must submit your course selection by the home school's published deadline. Students who submit after the deadline will have courses selected for them by their guidance counsellors. Home schools will be using student courses selections to build the timetable for next year. Students who submit courses by the deadline will have equal consideration for registration in a course.
