Course Selection Coming Up! Choose for You

As counselors begin to come to your classes to talk to you about your options for next year remember to consider all of your options. Think long-term, what inspires you, what you want to learn more about, what you want to experience, and what you will need for your future.

* Here's a link to L.A. Matheson's courses available to you for the choosing
* Connect with the Career Centre! Explore your options beyond the classroom: Co-ops, District Programs, and much more
* I know you may only be in grade 10, and graduation seems far away, but here's important information of what you need to do for yourself starting now: Grade 10 College Planning Timeline

Talk to your parents, talk to your teachers, the counselors, Ms. Wilson in the Career Centre and choose what's truly best for you

This is why I love English and Socials

As we're getting into the guts of our courses I'm so impressed with the work you all are doing. It's a joy to be teaching and learning with you, and I am reminded that I could never be a Math teacher :)

Test Your Brain


Hi ladies and gents, for any of you who were curious about your brain and various abilities the brain science link has been remedied. It connects you to the Cambridge Brain Science Tests page, and for those of you wondering, it's the spatial reasoning category where I have the capacity of a monkey :)
