OCDSB to host Going to High School - Virtual Information Night on April 28, 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board invites students and their families for the Going to High School information night on April 28, 2022, 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. This virtual conference, organized by OCDSB’s Innovation and Adolescent Learning team, will provide details about the transition from Grade 8 to high school.
Students and families will discover the curriculum and subject areas available to all incoming grade 9 students. Instructional coaches will be facilitating 15-minute presentations, allowing students/families time to ‘visit’ various subject areas. The move to destreamed curriculum will be presented to address some of the questions we have received from our parent community, helping to alleviate some of the anxieties about this important transition for our students.
Some of the sessions will be offered in multiple languages, including Farsi/Arabic, Somali/Arabic, Arabic, Mandarin/Cantonese. Additional sessions related to Link Crew, Mental health and wellness, Indigenous, Equity and 2SLGTBQ+ supports are also offered, with many more. All workshops can be seen by viewing the Going to High School website.
