The date for the rewrite is Wednesday, November 6th from 9 am to 12 pm in the library. No assessments can be ordered for the November sitting after October 7th.

Graduation Assessments – Literacy & Numeracy
Graduation assessments are changing to align with the new curriculum. Last June marked the end of course-based provincial exams. As part of the updated graduation requirements, students in the B.C. Graduation Program will have to complete three or four provincial assessments. They will focus on the demonstration and application of numeracy and literacy.
Please note that starting next year students on the French Immersion Dual Dogwood program write two Literacy Assessments in grade 12 – one in English and one in French. (

What Graduation Assessments your child will need to write based on what grade your child is currently in.
