Our Mandate<br />
• <strong>WCOS</strong> offers a more flexible learning environment. This allows students to work<br />
on individualized courses, using independent timetables, based on their own<br />
personal schedules.<br />
• Attendance and progress is agreed upon in contracts between the teacher and<br />
student. There may be no attendance requirements for senior high students if<br />
progress remains satisfactory, although attendance is encouraged. Junior High<br />
students have mandatory attendance expectations.<br />
• STUDENT CHARACTERISTICS:<br />
• May wish to complete an extra course to speed up their graduation<br />
• May wish to take a dual program - courses at both the <strong>Outreach</strong> and RJSH<br />
• May require a more flexible time schedule due to personal, employment or<br />
parenting commitments<br />
• Are pregnant or new moms who still wish to continue with their education<br />
• Want to work ahead or off-site due to involvement in sports requiring a lot of<br />
time away<br />
• Have withdrawn from classes and wish to return, but prefer a more independent,<br />
smaller learning environment<br />
• Have not met with success in a traditional school setting<br />
• Are at risk of dropping out, due to emotional, psychological or behavioural issues
