Course Planning Reminder!

  1. Students need to complete course selections by Friday, February 26
  2. They can preferably do so directly through MyEducation BC. A how-to video is posted on the JO website here.
  3. They should also complete and submit a course request sheet (located outside the Counselling Suite) to their Counsellor. Even if they do not complete the MyEd step, if they give their Counsellor a course request sheet, we will manually enter the courses for them.
The course catalogue is online here.
