Available by appointment or after school drop-in sessions, SLS staff supports students in any grade from program exploration all the way to application completion
career pathways supports
McNally SLS offers a variety of employment and off-campus education supports through several different opportunities
McNally has built strong and proven partnerships with both Campus EPSB and Careers The Next Generation
Campus EPSB is a collection of EPSB programs that are designed to provide students an opportunity to earn high school credits and industry related credentials in a specific career path before transitioning to a post-secondary program
Careers The Next Generation is an educational partner that helps bridge the gap between employers and schools traditionally, Careers support the delivery of the Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAP) and have become increasingly focused on connecting students with paid internship opportunities within the skilled trades, business, and technology sectors by connecting students with employers.
Generally, students interested in a program connected with Campus EPSB or Careers The Next Generation will start planning their path in grade 10, 11, or 12 and will follow through with their plan in grade 11, 12, or a 4th year of high school
McNally supports our students through their journey into the world of work through our Work Experience program
In Work Experience, students who are already employedd can earn 1 credit for every 25 hours that they accumulate on the job
