There is limited space, so apply now for next school year's intake using the SD43 Application

SD43 partners with Camosun College to offer this a post secondary program for a complete semeseter (in 2016-17 we had an intake for each semester... more information will be available in the spring once all applications have been collected). Upon successful completion, students receive 16 high school credits at the grade 12 level.
 

The purpose of the EPIC program is to facilitate families and schools working in partnerships to ensure that students who are elite performers in athletics, theatre, music , dance and modelling are able to build educational programs that maximize success both in meeting Graduation Program requirements and achieving their potential in their discipline.   Student who compete or perform at a provincial, national or international level, students who are recognized as being in the top 10% in their discipline in the province, or students whose participation in a disciple is required to miss scheduled schooling on a regular basis may be interested in this program.

For more information, please contact your child's counselor or visit the district site outlining EPIC information.
