Thames Valley high schools are getting ready to offer students entering Grade 9 this fall a sneak peek into the secondary school experience with the board’s free, two-day High School, Here I Come! program.
Running August 21-22 and again August 23-24, the program will teach students study skills, literacy and numeracy learning skills, the importance of time management and organization, and will go through the realities and anxieties associated with high school.
The program is being offered at many high schools in Elgin County including Arthur Voaden Secondary School, Central Elgin Collegiate Institute, East Elgin Secondary School, Lord Dorchester Secondary School, Parkside Collegiate Institute and West Elgin Secondary School.
Registration for the free program is open until August 11th.
