​Dear Parents/Guardians of Grade 9 Students,

This notice is to inform you of a non-enrolling course requirement that your son/daughter is responsible for as a grade 9 student at Gleneagle Secondary.  As part of the Career Education 9 curriculum, your son/daughter will be involved in several learning opportunities to fulfill this course.  Grade 9's taking Career Education 9 do not meet formally as a regular day-to-day school course would. However, students are responsible for participating in all learning opportunities and completing all assignments given to them.  Grade 9 students will not receive a formal letter grade for this course, rather a "complete/incomplete" status (students need to complete ALL requirements in order to graduate).  The first required learning opportunity is "Take Your Kids to Work Day" on Wednesday, November 2nd (please see the additional newsletter).  Future events and assignments are as follows:

1.            Take Your Kids to Work Day (Off Campus): Wednesday, November 2nd
