The school offers programs in applied design, arts, and physical education that shape student life throughout the year. These activities represent how the institution engages with young people in practical and creative ways.
Parents and students use the MyEd BC system to access school information and grades online. It helps to set up this account early in the school year to stay connected with teacher updates and academic progress.
