Golden Hills Learning Academy offers a complete junior high program (grades 7 to 9). Students enrolled in the junior high courses take a combination, or blend, of both online and print courses. There are core courses and options available. Our program offers students flexibility in their learning environment that traditional schools cannot provide. Students create their own timetable based on the required hours Alberta Education has for each course.
Junior High students who are successful in our courses are self-motivated, organized, and enjoy working independently. Parents (or Guardians) are the key to the success of this type of learning. We depend on them to help our Junior High students stay on task and keep up with their schedules. As most Junior High students are under 16 years old, we strongly encourage supervision of the program. The GHLA staff work closely with the student and parents in offering online, over the phone and face-to-face tutoring and support.
