Enrichment Program leading to Advanced Placement Program
The Enrichment Program at Sir Allan MacNab Secondary School is a set of academic skills, strategies, and content used to build rigorous curricula, prepare students for success in senior Advanced Placement courses, increase academic challenges, promote independent learning and expose students to assessment techniques useful for success at university. The Enrichment Program is not prescribed curriculum but rather an enhanced experience to enrich current curriculum standards.
