SGCHS Handbook

Course selection builds the foundation for your future; these tips can help with these important decisions:

• Be Aware.  Abilities, interests, values, and goals can help direct your decisions. Talk with parents, teachers, counsellors, and others who can identify and clarify these with you.
   
• Be Realistic. Choose courses and programs that are consistent with previous achievements. Recommended marks for prerequisite courses are carefully set. Courses that are too difficult can lead to discouragement; courses that are too easy may lead to boredom.
   
• Know. Understand the graduation requirements, scholarship guidelines, prerequisites, course content, and difficulty level. Choose a course based on your needs, not your friends.

To provide students with the maximum opportunity for success and an excellent educational opportunity: 

• Grade 10 and 11 students are expected to carry a full course load each semester.
   
• Grade Coordinators and Student Services’ staff are happy to assist students with course selections that meet their needs for post-secondary and employment goals.
   
• Student Services will contact students with spares to assist them in selecting a course to fill their timetable and ensure they meet their educational goals.
   
• Students repeating core courses may be directed to Inreach, Outreach or Summer School.
   
• Students withdrawn from a course will be placed in supervised study for the remainder of the semester and, if time permits, enrolled in Work Experience and/or Learning Strategies.
   
• There will be no lingering or loitering in the hallways and student lounge during class time.
   
• Grade 12 students on a spare will be required to work in the library, a supervised computer lab or will be asked to leave the school premises for that duration.

We wish our students a successful, fun-filled year at Spruce Grove Composite High School!
