The Special Education Department assists students through instructional support, consultation, monitoring, assessment and individual education planning.

Our Student Learning Centre – Room B116  promotes educational services for students according to their needs and abilities. Students, teachers, and school programs all play an important role in reaching this goal. This Resource Room has a variety of unique learning and behaviour strategies and programs in place to assist students.

These strategies and programs include:

• individual assistance to develop organizational and study skills

• individual attention in a wide variety of subject areas

• suggestions to classroom teachers as to how best meet student exceptionalities

• Room B116  for student work and support

• extra time to write tests and exams

• grade 10 literacy test support

At the beginning of each semester, the teachers of an exceptional student are provided with the student’s Individual Education Plan (IEP). The IEP is regularly updated to accurately reflect the needs of the student. Please contact Erin Ambachtsheer at ext. 317, or by Email Erin Ambachtsheer with any Special Education questions.
