Open Learning encompasses two programs. A program for K-9 students and a grade 10-12 program. Our courses are fully accredited by the Ministry of Education and there are no charges for students to take these courses. The K-9 program is open to all students who want to learn in an alternative environment. The grade 10-12 courses are open to students who need to make up credits, want expanded curriculum offerings, more flexible scheduling options, specialized courses that some schools may not be able to offer or even students who want to get ahead.
