The NB Department of Education and Early Childhood Development has created a new website for NB parents, teachers, support staff and organizations looking to support each student to succeed to their fullest potential in a positive learning environment.

The Explore program offers Grade 11 and Grade 12 students, as well as post-secondary students, the opportunity to pursue their studies in their second official language over a five-week period during the spring or summer months at a number of institutions across Canada. Bursary recipients participate in a number of activities which allow them to improve their communicative competence in their second official language and to explore the culturally rich environment in which they are learning. In addition, participants meet others from across the country – a great way to create links!
Progress reports will be going home today. Students should have one sheet from each of their five classes. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the teachers via email (adresses available on the staff page of this web site) or at 523-7160.
