High School students can register for any Reach Ahead course in which they have the prerequisite. Students are eligible to take one reach ahead course only and cannot take a second course including elearn, credit recovery or cooperative education.
Upgrade courses are also available for Grade 9 Math (MTH1W) and English (ENL1W). Students must have earned 50-65% in the course to apply. This is an opportunity to improve a mark and prepare for Grade 10.
Students who have been unsuccessful in a course can register to recover the missed credit. A minimum of 30% in the original course is recommended to participate in the summer credit recovery program and must be approved by their homeschool staff. Recommendation for credit recovery is completed based on expectations completed in the course. Students must meet with their guidance counsellor to register.
This non-credit program supports beginner multilingual learners (ELD and ESLAO/BO) who have not yet earned a mainstream English credit. Students will participate in interactive opportunities to engage in everyday social activities.
Please note that Grade 11 SHSM students requiring summer coop as part of their plan must consult with their guidance counsellor and SHSM Lead teacher prior to completing an application. Spaces are limited and not guaranteed. Deadline to register is April 24, 2026.
As a part of this program, Indigenous students will have the opportunity to earn a Reach-Ahead credit, or recover some credits, depending on the information on their status sheets. Students will meet curriculum expectations in a variety of ways including: land-based learning, cultural teachings, experiential learning, field trips, arts and crafts, through elder teachings and so much more! This program is like a day camp for Indigenous students where you can earn credits.
