Grade 11 Semester 1 Course Schedule

Please keep in mind that this schedule is intended to be a rough guide. It will be changed as classes are disrupted by other events or we either progress more quickly than anticipated or require more time. The flexibility to respond to your learning needs is a key component in making year 1 of the course successful. The due dates written here are accurate and will be kept current so keep checking back to this page.

Blogs – remember you will be writing or replying to other’s blogs every week so those assignments aren’t listed here.
