EXPLORATORY #1 REGISTRATION FORM

(January 6, 2025 – March 3, 2025)

The Exploratory program is designed to allow students to explore non-traditional courses. Classes are based upon teacher passion and provide an outstanding opportunity to share or to develop that passion. Our website provides information that will enable students and parents to discuss exploratory options and to choose from the list below.

Students are encouraged to explore, in the true sense of the word, by selecting from the offerings listed. Exploratories are part of the curriculum. The goals of exploratories are to learn new French vocabulary in a new setting and to make connections to new interests and new people in cross-grade groups. Attendance is mandatory, just like any other curricular course.

Many exploratories will fill up quickly, so be sure to:

Complete this form, have a parent sign it, bring in your fees (if any – in the form of cash or cheque made out to SD#62) for your first choice only and pass it to your teacher starting on November 18, 2024. Forms need to be in no later than November 21 or student will be put into a class that has space. If fee is not needed, money will be returned to the student and parent will be notified.
