2022 Terry Fox fundraising
On September 23rd, we will host our annual Cairine Wilson Terry Fox Run. Our Wildcat goal is to raise $5373 dollars, to commemorate the the 5373 kilometers that Terry ran on his Marathon of Hope, which began in St. John's, Newfoundland and ended outside Thunder Bay, Ontario, when it was discovered that Terry was, once more, suffering from the osteogenic sarcoma that Terry believed he had beaten when he had his right leg amputated three years earlier.
Please consider donating to the Terry Fox Foundation by clicking on the link below to support innovative and diverse cancer research. Thank you!

Mandatory eLearning Graduation Requirement and Opt-out Information
Beginning with the cohort of students who entered Grade 9 in 2020-21 (current Grade 10 students), all students must earn a minimum of two e-learning credits in order to graduate with an OSSD. Students in certificate pathways are exempted from this requirement. Students who were in Grade 9 in 2020-21 will receive one e-learning credit in recognition of their pandemic learning experiences.
Students who would like to opt-out of this requirement can do so using this form. Please note, current grade 10 students will receive one eLearning credit due to their experiences with pandemic learning, and current grade 11 and 12 students are exempted from the requirement and do not need to complete the opt-out form. Frequently asked questions about the mandatory eLearning requirement and the opt-out process are available on the OCDSB website.
For those students who have already completed their course selection, please contact your Guidance Counsellor to discuss any potential changes and/or to select an eLearning course. Here is the full list of elearning courses available for students to select from in Xello.
