VICTORIA PARK COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE GRADE NINE I.B. PREPARATION COURSE CALENDAR & APPLICATION PROCEDURES Victoria Park Collegiate Institute 15 Wallingford Road North York, Ontario, M3A 2V1 (416) 395-3310

AN INTRODUCTION Victoria Park Collegiate Institute, established in 1960, is located in a quiet residential area close to the intersection of Victoria Park Avenue and York Mills Road. The student population reflects the multicultural make-up of the area. Academically, the school offers a range of programs at the academic, applied and open levels of difficulty in Mathematics, Science and Technology, the Arts, the Humanities, and Business Education, in addition to the demanding International Baccalaureate curriculum. Well-equipped facilities such as the Information Centre, Cross Curricular computer labs, the Broad-Based Technology labs, and the Fitness Centre allow students to learn in a setting where modern equipment and trained staff give students an edge in achieving the necessary background for a well rounded education. Co-curricular activities enable students to develop leadership skills and participate in athletics, student government, school clubs and the arts. Support programs are available in Special Education and English as a Second Language. Through the use of technology, information retrieval and processing are easily accessed and readily used in all areas of curriculum. The International Baccalaureate Programme at Victoria Park The International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme is a challenging two-year curriculum. It leads to a qualification that is widely recognized by the world s leading universities. Victoria Park was the first publicly-funded school in Ontario to host the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. We have been authorized to offer the IB Diploma Programme since July 1987. The first graduating class had 8 IB Diplomas awarded. Last year VP had 89 IB Diploma recipients. The IB Prep courses in Grades 9 and 10 follow the same semester schedule as other Intermediate classes. To accommodate the additional material in the IB curriculum, VP subject departments have created Grade 9 and 10 IB Prep courses which move through the Ontario Curriculum at an accelerated pace, and incorporate extra units and activities specific to IB. It is expected that students have mastered the material from one grade before advancing to the next. At Victoria Park we believe in the importance of teachers, parents, and students working together! Mr. Vance Scott Mr. Todd Bushell Mr. Greg Foulidis Mrs. Suzanne Read Ms. Rose Ullah Ms. Catherine Bacque Principal Vice-Principal Vice-Principal Vice-Principal Head of Guidance I.B. Coordinator

Preparatory (Enriched Academic) and Open I.B. Preparatory Courses: These required courses cover core concepts in more depth and breadth than Academic. Students will be given enrichment in five core subject areas. There is an emphasis on independent study and more self-directed learning. Open Courses: These elective courses have one set of expectations for the subject. They are designed to provide all students with a broad educational base in the subject. Compulsory Credits for IB Diploma One course each from five of the IB Groups: Language, Second Language, Individuals and Societies, Mathematics, and Experimental Sciences/Computer Science 3 courses at Standard Level (1 Grade 11, and 1-2 Grade 12 credits) 3 courses at Higher Level (1-2 Grade 11, and 1-2 Grade 12 credits)

PROGRAM GRADE 9 EVALUATION Grade 9 is the first year of the Secondary School program which leads to the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (O.S.S.D.). Students will be required to meet specific course expectations in each subject area. The expectations identified for each course describe the knowledge and skills that students are expected to develop and demonstrate in their class work, on tests, and in various other activities on which their achievement is assessed and evaluated. The focus of assessment and evaluation is to improve student learning. Assessment and evaluation will be based on the provincial curricular expectations for each discipline. The Victoria Park mid-semester report cards provide students and parents with an evaluation of skills and knowledge development mid-way through the course. SEMESTERS Victoria Park is on the semester system. The school year is divided into two parts. Students take four subjects from September to January; then four new courses from February to June. While methods of evaluation vary according to subject areas, emphasis is placed on day-to-day work, assignments, projects, term tests and formal examinations. One set of formal examinations will be written by all students each semester. CHOICES There are important questions which must be answered before selecting a program for next year. Perhaps one of the most important is: What type of courses will I study? The answer should reflect: A student s ability in school and also his/her goals How well the student has done in elementary school The student s work habits What the student plans to do upon graduation Before deciding on the appropriate level of difficulty in each subject, the student should have discussions with their counsellor, teachers and certainly their parents.
