Student Services

EXAM INFO JANUARY 2012

The Student Services Department offers guidance for course selection. The following documents may help in decision-making. As always, students and parents are encouraged to speak with Mrs. Brodie if they have any questions about appropriate course choices.

 

Student Services Overview

It is the goal of King's to equip students for whatever path they may choose beyond their high school education. While the vast majority of King's graduates pursue a university degree, they are also well-prepared for the work-force, having applied the rigourous disciplines of critical inquiry, study and application.

Our Student Services Department is poised to assist our students in making wise choices from a wide array of post-secondary options.

For help with student services issues, contact Mrs. Brodie or Mr. Shin
