Path to Post Secondary

 

Archer Preparatory College aims to equip each of our graduates with the skills, knowledge and confidence they will need to make a smooth transition to their post-secondary studies.  Our graduates demonstrate:

 

Leadership

Senior level students are encouraged to actively participate in the school and its surrounding community by taking leadership roles in the Student Council, the Social Action Committee and Peer Tutoring.

 

Critical Thinking

The guidance department will provide each student with assistance in choosing the best possible post-secondary studies and will also lead the student in career counseling.

 

Initiative

Students can elect to take a cooperative education credit, whereby they are able to work with a mentor and learn firsthand the skills required to succeed in their chosen field of work.

 

Knowledge

Students can begin working toward Advanced Placement credits early in their academic career to ensure acceptance and credit transfers to some of the top Canadian and international universities.

 

Mastery

By becoming actively involved in the creation of their Individualized Learning Paths, students are highly motivated to achieve the goals which they set for themselves.  A high level of intrinsic motivation stimulates the student to put more effort into their studies, resulting in a more rewarding learning experience.
