International Students

Students who are not deemed ordinarily residents of British Columbia, thus are ineligible for the public school operation grant, are classified as Fee-Paying International Students. Their admission into the District’s International Student Program is determined by the School District’s established International Student Admission Regulations and Procedures.


Programs of Choice

The District offers dozens of options, including language programs. Students can explore their interests, support their strengths, or get exposed to a career through a variety of program choices. For most Programs of Choice, applications are received in February for priority placement for the following school year. Learn more.
