Your Catholic education provides you with many opportunities to enhance your skills, build your confidence, develop life-long friendships, give back to your community and become the person that God intends you to be.

The transition to Grade 9 is an exciting time, filled with new adventure, hope and opportunities. Our secondary staff is here to help you on your educational journey. Now is the time to discover yourself - follow your dreams and find a pathway that best suits your needs and wants.

Our secondary staff - guidance counsellors, student success teachers, support staff, principals and vice-principals are available to help answer your questions or concerns.

Take time to enjoy your high school experience. The best way to make new friends is to get involved - grow and nurture your body, mind, social, emotional, spiritual and mental well-being.
