Our IB Coordinators manage all aspects of the IB Diploma Program (including the application and admission process for prospective grade 8 and 9 students) and can be found in the IB Office (room 133) when they aren't out of the building or teaching classes.
Student Success & the SST Room
Student Success & the SST Room
A Student Success Teacher (SST) works with students who need academic support and supervises the SST Room (room 232) where students can get help completing missing coursework. SSTs communicate with teachers and families about the evolving needs of students in exceptional circumstances or those facing academic barriers in order to find a pathway to success. Our Breakfast Program also runs out of room 232 and is available for student to access from 8:45-9:15 am daily.

Co-Op Coordinator
Co-Op Coordinator
The Co-op Coordinator coordinates community placements for students to earn credits through employment opportunities. The Co-op Coordinator spends much of his time outside of the school, visiting worksites to monitor student progress and maintain relationships with the business owners/managers that enable this excellent program. When in school, the Co-op Coordinator can be found in the Guidance Office.
Support Professionals
Support Professionals
Students and families are sometimes referred to our dedicated team of in-school professionals when difficult circumstances arise that make school or life in general difficult to manage. These professionals float between schools within the OCDSB and are available only through a coordinated, school-based referral process as a stop-gap measure until outside supports are implemented. If you believe access to someone below could be beneficial, please get in touch with your Guidance Counsellor.
