2007-8
Passport to
Education
The ministry of
Education has introduced a credit system toward the cost of post
secondary education called Passport to Education. Here is how the
program works:
- at the end of
each school year, the top students in each grade receive a stamp for
their passport.
- Stamps are
awarded for student achievement.
- the official
record of stamps received is on file with the school.
Value of
Passport Credits
Grade 10 $250.00
Grade 11 $250.00
Grade 12 $500.00
2007-8 There are
financial grade 12 BC provincial exam scholarships. Most Ontario
and some BC universities no longer require provincial exams beyond the
core subjects required for graduation.
At the grade 12
graduation ceremonies, Kitsilano "K"s and 'Torches' are awarded to
eligible students.
2007-8
Administration is investigating establishing a "Recognition Committee"
at the school so that we can look at other initiatives. One idea being
considered is a Super G (for effort) Award/Club hopefully to be started
Sep. 2008. If parents have other ideas, please let Administration
know.
