Dear Parents and Guardians,
Each year the Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) conducts the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT). This provincial test measures the performance of grade 10 students on the reading and writing expectations in all subjects up to and including grade 9.
Successful completion of the OSSLT is a graduation requirement. This semester the test is being administered between November 17 and November 19 for all eligible grade 10s. Your child can speak to their homeroom teacher for more details. There will be some preparation during their regularly scheduled grade ten classes. GCVI is also offering after school classes for any students who would like some extra preparation for the test.
