PROGRESS REPORTS
●Reports of student achievement are sent out 3 times a year for Kindergarten to grade 6, and 4 times a year for Grade 7 to 12.
●Current marks are available through the PowerSchool Student/Parent portal.
SPECIAL EDUCATION
●The diverse nature of student needs and abilities often dictates the establishment of special programs and/or teaching strategies. These programs are designed to address both ends of the spectrum from gifted to specific disabilities.
LEARNING SUPPORTS APPEAL PROCEDURE:
●We believe parents play a huge role in their child’s development. As such, we strive to involve parents in educational support decisions. However, for the purpose of ensuring adherence to the principles of fundamental justice, the board supports the provision of an appeal structure for parents disputing placement decisions affecting students in need of specific learning supports..

COURSE LOAD MODIFICATION PROCEDURE
●It is imperative that students discuss with the School of Hope academic counsellor and their parents about the courses they wish to take to ensure that they are enrolled in classes in which they can successfully complete. If a student wishes to drop a class, talking to the counselor should be the first step. Important to note that administrative and parental permission must be obtained.
