Withdrawal Process
NVSD will process withdrawals with a signed

Withdrawal Procedure
Both Academy programs and school courses
are staffed based on enrollment information. The Commitment Fee is non-refundable. For withdrawals during the school year, a proportion of fees will be refunded in the following circumstances:
1. Illness / Injury / Medical
A student requesting withdrawal from an
academy for medical reasons will be asked to substantiate the request with
physician signed documentation (must be attached to this form). Fees would be
discontinued effective the last day of the month in which the documented
notification was received by the District Principal of Enhanced Programs and
Academies.
2. Move Out of District
We require a minimum of 15 days written
notice (completed Academy Withdrawal Form) if a student is moving out of North
Vancouver School District and wishes to withdraw from an academy. Fees would be
discontinued effective the last day of the month in which the documented notification
was received by the District Principal of Enhanced Programs and Academies.
3. Reasons Other than Above
We require a minimum of one month's notice, along with a completed Academy Withdrawal Form, to consider a withdrawal request. A
decision will be made collaboratively by the Academy teacher, school counsellor
and the District Principal of Enhanced Programs and Academies. A student
withdrawing from an academy may or may not be placed into a regular course,
depending upon space availability. This is at the discretion of the school and
the limitations of the school timetable. Fees would be discontinued effective
the last day of the month, following the appropriate notification was received by
the District Principal of Enhanced Programs and Academies. The District
Principal of Enhanced Programs and Academies must be consulted and informed by
email to academies@sd44.ca with
a scanned copy of this Withdrawal Form attached.
