We emphasize community service and give students opportunities to gain volunteer hours by participating with local charities. Our goal is to strengthen school- community relationships and give back to the area. All are welcome!

Attention to all students interested in learning more about the exciting programs in our Ontario Colleges.  There are very unique opportunities throughout the province.  For instance, Marine Navigation or Marine Engineering are only offered through Georgian College.  Students in these programs are seeing up to 7 job offers before they even graduate.  Industry experts are projecting that students will see annual salaries close to $300,000 a year because of the shortage of qualified individuals in this field.  Many more unique programs that do not exist at Niagara college are in other Ontario Colleges.  If you would like to learn more, print the permission form posted in the grade 11 & 12 D2L classes or stop by Guidance to get a paper copy.  All completed forms must be returned to Student Services by 2:30pm this Friday, October 13th.

Wait - Remember our first grad meeting when Ms Cripps said there will be two groups of grads?  One who knew what was going on, and the other who is amazed at those who do.  Which one are you in?  Those in the group who know what is going on, got a notification on Tuesday night about the process for booking a grad photo session.  If you did not, then you need to set notifications so that you get updates.  The process is outlined in the grade 12 D2L class.  Book your appointment today. Pegasus is only here for a short time.
