GENERAL OBJECTIVES:

We provide our student athletes with a supportive environment which will enable them to succeed academically while pursuing their athletic careers.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:

  • To provide a balance between the academic and athletic development of the student athlete.
  • To provide time to work on their school assignments and to access remedial help when required.
  • To schedule the necessary time to allow the student athlete to practice his/her sport while providing the opportunity to:
    • Eat at a more reasonable hour
    • Have sufficient rest
    • Reduce the mental and psychological stress created by both academic and athletic demands.
  • To develop the student athlete as a whole person by fostering:
    • Strong social skills 
    • Strong organizational skills
    • Effective community skills
    • Cooperative “team” skills
    • Perseverance and the pursuit of excellence

ACADEMICS:


  • A student must meet the requirements for a Secondary School Diploma in 70% of the designated time, leaving the remaining 30% of the time to pursue the athletic endeavor.
  • The schedule must allow for the student athlete to cover all the required subjects.
  • The student athletes are subject to the same evaluation process as all other students (i.e. MELS Provincial Examinations, School Board Examinations, etc.)
  • The student athletes are to maintain an average to above average success rate in each subject. They will also receive pedagogical support whenever necessary.

THE TEACHING STAFF IS PREPARED TO:

  • Provide tutorials and /or study hall supervision
  • Be flexible with deadlines in order that make-up tests or assignments may be completed.
  • Use present day technology (for example e-mail, fax) in order to provide schoolwork to those athletes who are away from school due to a competition in their sport.

THE PROGRAM COORDINATOR IS TO:

  • Maintain contact with the various Sports Federations.
  • Supervise the athlete’s academic progress.
