Any students who are requesting a course change, need to complete the Course Change Form below. Please note, the form will close on Thursday September 10 at 4pm – all course request changes need to be submitted before this time.

Link to course change form: Course Change Request Form For September 2026/27 Courses –> CLOSES THURS (SEPT 10) @ 4pm – Fill out form

Please remember:

• Only students will have access to this form through their Office 365/Outlook account.
• Counsellors will only make course changes if there is a legitimate error in a student’s schedule.
  • Timetable errors include: missing a class (you have fewer than 8 courses), you are in a class that you’ve successfully completed or you are missing a course that is required for Graduation or Post-Secondary.
  • Counsellors will not make changes if: you want a different teacher, you don’t like the time of day a class is offered, your friends aren’t in your class, or you have changed your mind about an elective.
• Students only have one opportunity to submit this form so consider choices carefully before submitting the form.
• Please review the process for course changes in the form before completing and submitting it.
• Students should continue to follow their original schedule after submitting the form, but should continue to be checking their MyEd to see if their course change request has been made.

Counsellors know this can be a stressful time for students, and they appreciate your patience.

MyEducation

MyEd is currently closed for Parents and Students as we get all the scheduling completed. You will be notified when it is open on September 4, 2026.

Students MUST log in to MyEducation (click https://myeducation.gov.bc.ca/aspen/logon.do)and access their class schedule prior to coming to school on Wednesday, September 9th. Please be aware that the parent view does NOT provide complete information on your child’s timetable, so it is essential that your child log into their own account to access this information. The MyEdBC portal will open on the evening Friday, September 4th.

Course Change Requests

We will be processing all change requests via Microsoft Office Form which will be sent to students and parents on September 4th.   Students must use their school Outlook email to access the form.  Please do not send course change requests to counsellors via email.  Students must attend all classes scheduled on their timetables (even if they are requesting an adjustment) but should continue to be checking their MyEd to see if their course change request has been made. Counsellors will do their best to honour the requests, but there are limitations based on what is available. Counsellors will call students from their scheduled classes to discuss requests, where spaces are available.

We look forward to a great start to the school year!

Students are expected to clean out their lockers and return the locks during Period 8. Please ensure that your locker is completely empty by the end of the day. Take all personal belongings home and return any textbooks or library books. 

Period 8 teachers will distribute orange lock tags and collect locks.  You must write your lock combination on the orange lock tags, attach it to the lock, and return it to the Period 8 teacher.  All locks must be returned. 

If you cannot remember your lock combination, you can look it up in the locker database on our school website. 

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Student Recognition Ceremony on Tuesday evening. It was wonderful to see such a large turnout as we celebrated our students’ achievements across a wide range of areas within the school.  Congratulations to all of our students on their outstanding accomplishments.  We would like to thank to all parents/guardians for your continued support and encouragement, which plays such an important role in our student’s success.
