Our school serves a diverse community and aims to provide the highest quality education. Enrollment has increased over the past decade from around 2,600 students to over 3,500 currently. The number of graduates has also risen significantly during this period, with an average of around 135 graduates per year but an increase of 97.5% over the past 8 years. Various programs are offered to support students, such as homework help, literacy and numeracy support for grades 9 and 10, and skills development for Aboriginal students.
