Choosing which courses to take is an important decision that will help shape your future. These tips can help you make these important decisions:
Grade 10 course codes start with the digit "1". The most academic courses (10 and 10-1) are intended for university-bound or college/technical program students. The 10-2 and 10-3 course sequence is designed for students planning to enter college, technical or trade school. The 20-3/24 courses are the minimum academic level that meets the Alberta High School Diploma requirements.
Students in Grade 10 are expected to enrol in courses totalling 40 or more credits. Courses offered are typically 5 credits (taught each day) or 3 credits (taught every other day). We encourage students to complete as many credits as possible in Grade 10 to ensure greater timetable flexibility in the subsequent years.
When a timetable cannot be filled with an assigned course, Grade 10 students will be assigned an AAC course. No Grade 10 students will have a spare.
The AAC time can be used to study for upcoming exams, homework, complete missed assignments or complete modular course work.
It is designed to develop learning strategies for Grade 10 students and support them in meeting graduation requirements.
The selection of Grade 10 courses is based on Grade 9 report card marks and teacher comments. To increase the probability of success, pick a course level recommended by your teacher or by the high school. Remember, plan for all three years of high school, not just one.
Students can register for Grade 11 courses based on the most recent grade 10 report card marks. If the prerequisite course shows a failing grade, the student is not permitted to register for the next course in the sequence. Grade 11 course codes start with the digit "2".
If 40 or more credits were earned in Grade 10, the student should enrol in at least 35 credits in Grade 11. The intent is that each student should have at least 75 credits by the end of Grade 11.
Grade 12 students are expected to check diploma requirements carefully and complete an Application for Graduation form available during semester one.
A student who fails a course in a higher-level sequence may, with an appropriate mark, transfer to a lower level sequence. Grade 12 course codes start with the digit "3".
As a potential student returning to Grade 12 at Memorial Composite High, you are not guaranteed admission to our main campus. Parkland School Division's Policy 14 states that the majority of students are expected to complete high school within three years of enrolling in Grade 10.
Students less than 20 years of age on September 1 of a school year and wishing to enrol for an additional year or years shall be accommodated in Connections for Learning's Outreach Program.
Notwithstanding, the administrators may enrol a student in an additional year or years if that student has demonstrated good citizenship, and if space/or resources at the school are available.
