What Is The Enhanced Learning Program?
It is an academic program for self-motivated students. Each student, while consulting with their teacher, creates a self-paced individual learning profile that will outline their plan for achieving the course goals. This learning profile is then tracked and monitored by both the student and the teacher until the course is completed. In this environment the teacher acts as guide or facilitator in the learning process to help the student implement their plan.
What Courses Are Offered In The Enhanced Learning Program?
The main focus is currently on core subjects at the 20 and 30 levels (Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Math, English, and Social Studies). For English and Social Studies both the -1 and -2 levels will be offered. For Math, 10C, 10-3, 20-1, 20-2, 20-3, 30-1, 30-2 and 31 are offered.

How is Coursework Completed?
Coursework is completed in a blended learning environment, which uses online resources in conjunction with a trained teacher facilitator. The content has been created by master teachers, and is housed on an online program called Hapara Workspace. Each course will have its own outline, with the corresponding evaluation provided.
