Welcome to the Academic Resource Centre (ARC) at Northern Secondary School. My name is Amanda Yakubu and I am the Curriculum Leader for the department. I look forward to working with you. September 2025/6 will be an another adjustment as we reconnect to new expectations and procedures.
The ARC is located on the first floor of the school in room 112.
