Parents can share their thoughts and experiences around secondary education programs in the district. The engagement session takes place at G.P. Vanier in Courtenay from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m.

Families of current secondary students and of children about to enter high school are encouraged to attend. The session is part of an extensive program review and will allow parents to share ideas on how high school programs can be designed and delivered to meet students’ needs.
