New for 2016/2017:  Grade 9 Academic Math and Technology For Careers in the 21st Century - Two Credit Course
 
This two-credit full-year course integrates the numerology and problem solving skills of the academic math curriculum with the design and project nature of the integrated technology curriculum.  The two courses are taught concurrently by the same teacher with students alternating between the classroom, computer lab and woodshop. High skilled career paths will be highlighted through active connections with Ottawa University, Carleton University and Algonquin College.  Students will acquire technological skills that are transferable to both a career path and the real world while the math curriculum will be made meaningful through connections to practical applications.  Equally as valuable, the math curriculum will be spread out over the entire year which has been proven to increase both the success and retention rate.
