In secondary school, students explore their interests and plan their future.
Students refine the literacy and numeracy skills they learned in elementary grades, while exploring new courses that lead to graduation and post-secondary pathways beyond.
Our teachers strive to know their students so they can provide effective instruction in the classroom, as well as supports to ensure that every student achieves their full potential. Parents are important in this process because they provide support at home for learning in the classroom.
At HWDSB, we want to help secondary students and their families to:
- Plan for High School
- Get Involved
- Attend school as an International Student
- Understand the School Year Calendar
- Find effective Programs and Supports
Secondary school students also enjoy a wide range of activities outside of the classroom such as:
