Literacy and Numeracy Programs

General Information

Upper Grand DSB offers Grade 6, 7, and 8 students requiring additional support with the Ontario curriculum, particularly in the areas of Literacy and Numeracy, an opportunity to participate in an 8-day non-credit remediation program. The program is intended for students whose achievement of expectations in Grade 6, 7 or 8 Language and/or Mathematics indicates that they are likely to experience difficulty in the next school year.

Students who are achieving a Level 2 or below in Language and/or Mathematics at their grade level, and are recommended by their Principal, are eligible to participate in the program. Parents of Grade 6, 7, and 8 students can contact their home school to indicate their interest in the program.

All registrations will occur with the Principal (or designate) via this Lit/Num Support Registration form. 

Registration will open at the start of May.

These support programs are half-day in length so it is possible for students to participate in both the literacy and the numeracy support program.
