Reading this booklet and discussions with staff are an important procedure in making
such plans.
This booklet contains information about Sir Robert Borden's programme of studies. Sir
Robert Borden High School is organized according to regulations and operates within
guidelines established by the Ministry of Education of the Province of Ontario. The
courses of this school have been developed according to the requirements of the
Ministry of Education . Courses of study are available on request for perusal at the
school.
Parents, or students who have reached the age of majority, in consultation with their
parents, must assume the ultimate responsibility and decision concerning the choice of
programme and subjects for the student.

1. At Sir Robert Borden High School the Canadian History requirement may be fulfilled
by' taking course HCC 2G, HCC 2A, or HCC 2AF. The Canadian Geography
requirement may be fulfilled by taking course GCN 1G, GCN IA or GCN IAF. The
Science requirement may be fulfilled taking any Grade 9 (Year 1) or Grade 10 (Year 2)
Sceince or Biology course offered.
2. Students are encouraged to take more than the minimum 27 credits for the S.S.G.D
3. Course load. Students ar Sir Robert Borden must take 8 courses in Grades 9 and 10.
Students in Grades 11 and 12 are strongly recommended to take a full programme of
eight (8) courses, but are required to take a minimum of seven (7). For valid educational
reasons, the principal may approve a request for less than the required seven courses.
When such approval is granted, a supervised study will be assigned.
4. The four areas of study are:
i) Communications
ii) Social & Environmental Studies
iii) Pure & Applied Sciences
iv) Arts
Each subject is listed in the appropriate area of study on the option sheet. A working
copy of this option sheet appears at the back of this booklet.

5. Required subjects (core curriculum) to be selected are designated in this booklet as
follows:
ENGLISH (E)
GEOGRAPHY (G)
HISTORY (H)
MATHEMATICS (M)
SCIENCE (S)
6. What recognition is given to a student who completes more than the minimum number
of credits (27) required for an Ontario Secondary School Graduation Diploma.
(O.S.S.G.D.)?
A special Sir Robert Borden certificate called a 30 Plus Certificate is awarded to
students who obtain 30 or more credits. The Sir Robert Borden staff feels students
should be encouraged to achieve more than the minimal number of credits.
7. What programme must a student complete to qualify for the Ontario Secondary School
Honour Graduation Diploma (O.S.S.H.G.D.)?
An O.S.S.H.G.D. is completely separate from the O.S.S.G.D. Itis granted to students
who successfully complete six (6) Grade 13 (5A) courses in an Ontario high school. The
specific courses taken will determine post secondary programme choices.
8. Planning for University
Students would be wise to take a wide range of academic subjects in their pursuit of the
O.S.S.G.D. This would give a great deal of flexibility in choosing Grade 13 courses and
subsequent University programme. A suggested programme would be English,
Mathematics, Science, a language other than English and a Social Science in each year
to maintain maximum flexibility.
Selecting an appropriate Grade 13 programme is a most important matter. Each student
planning to enter university should carefully study university entrance requirements.
Career literature, university calendars, Horizons, campus visits, information sessions,
and counselling are services regularly provided to students by the Guidance Department
to help them plan for programmes at universities.
Parents and students are encouraged to contact counsellors to receive assistance in
preparing for university and community college.
9. Preparing for Community College and/or Apprenticeship
Some three year programmes at community colleges such as Algonquin specify certain
advanced subjects as prerequisites.
However, the basic requirement for entry to a community college is the O.S.S.G.D.
Many students who have taken subjects at the general level (IG, 2G, 3G, 4G) enter and
succeed in programmes at a community college.
Sir Robert Borden offers a good variety of technological studies and business education
subjects. Students interested in technological studies should usually supplement such
studies with mathematics, science, and the appropriate technological studies subjects.
The same would apply to students interested in apprenticeship programmes.
Students interested in a business career might be interested in taking the appropriate
courses offered by the business education department.
Career literature, community college calendars, Horizons, campus visits, information
sessions, and counselling are services regularly provided to students by the Guidance
Department to help them plan for programmes at community colleges.

4. Course Load
Students in grades 9,10 and I l are required to take 8 subjects per year. Students in grade
12 are recommended to take a full load of 8 courses, but may take 7 if they have
accumulated 24 credits. Students who are taking only O.A.C.'s may take 6.
viii
5. Planning for University
Entrance to an Ontario University will require a student to have an O.S.S.D. as well as 6
O.A.C.'s. O.A.C.'s may be counted as part of the 30 O.S.S.D. credits or may be in
addition to the O.S.S.D. credits. It is not anticipated that many students will satisfy both
requirements in four years of high school. To do so could result in a very difficult fourth
year and would require a student to limit the number of electives. Selecting an
appropriate O.A.C. programme is a most important matter. Each student planning to
enter university should carefully study university entrance requirements.

A 4 year programme for a math/ science student might look as follows:

Many students who have taken subjects at the general level (1G, 2G, 3G, 4G) enter and
succeed in programmes at a community college.
Sir Robert Borden offers a good variety of technological studies and business education
subjects. Students interested in technolgical studies should usually supplement such

BASIC: These courses are designed to focus on the development of personal
skills, social understanding, self-confidence and preparation for the
world of work. These courses serve the needs of students who may not
participate in post -secondary education and provide a good
preparation for direct entry into employment.
GENERAL: General level courses should be considered as appropriate
preparation for employment, careers, or futher education in certain
programmes in the colleges of Applied Arts and Technology and
other non -degree -granting post -secondary educational institutions. It
might be appropriate for university bound students to take some
courses at the general level to balance their programme. Care,
however, should be exercised in making certain that university
entrance requirements are met.
ADVANCED: These courses focus on the development of academic skills and
prepare students for entry to University or to certain programmes in
the colleges of Applied Arts and Techology. They are more content
oriented than geveral level courses. Courses should be taken at the
Advanced level in those subjects which the student plans to take in the
Grade 13 or O.A.C. year.

E. GUIDANCE SERVICES
The Guidance programme plays a vital role in the school curriculum at Sir Robert
Borden High School. The programme has been planned and developed from the
Guidance guidelines and an assessment of the student, school, parent and community
needs.
The programme provides the students with opportunities to:
-develop an understanding of themselves and their achievement.
-assist them in clarifying their educational options and career alternatives.
The following activities are planned and implemented by the Guidance Department to
assist in carrying out the above objectives:
-keeping abreast of all the community services offered to the secondary
school students, and having personal contact with these agencies in the
community.
-providing art information service to grade twelve and thirteen students who
are prospective community college and university applicants.
-providing feeder school students (Grade 8) and parents with information
about courses and planning a successful academic career.
-providing standardized testing to feeder school students in order to provide
students, teachers and parents a better understanding of the student's
abilities, aptitudes and interests.
-ensuring that every student has his/her programme of study evaluated.
-facilitating the academic, personal and social adjustment of new
students ....... (i.e. students coming to Sir Robert Borden High School from
schools other than our regular grade eight feeder schools).
F. SPECIAL PROGRAMMES
1. The Independent Studies programme is available to Grades 11 and 12 students on an
individualized basis. Student interested in enrolling in this programme should read the
programme description included in this booklet. Permission from the teacher co-
ordinator is required before admittance is granted.
The Co -Operative Education programme is a joint effort between the schools and the
community to provide a limited number of students with learning experiences outside
the classroom. It involves the use of community resources to meet particular
educational needs of some students. Students are placed in work locations which
complement in -school learning activities. The in -school and out-of-school activities are
co-ordinated so that classroom learning and work experiences combine in an
educationally beneficial way. At Sir Robert Borden High School students nearing the
completion of their secondary graduation diploma have benefited from this
programme. Other students with Business or Technical concentrations have found the
practical nature of this programme a help in career selection.
3. The Resource Unit offers individual assistance for students who are identified as
exceptional. Students are assigned to the Resource Unit after consultation with the
Resource Unit teacher, the parent and the principal. This is a non-credit programme.

H. HANDBOOK FOR STUDENTS AND PARENTS
Every August a handbook for students and parents is mailed to each student along with
the timetable._This handbook gives the school's expectations regarding students'
responsibilities, achievement, attendance and the philosophy of the school. In simple
terms, the philosophy of Sir Robert Borden is that everyone who comes to school comes
to do a day's work. This is accomplished in a friendly but business -like atmosphere. A
code of student behaviour is presently being written and will form part of this handbook
for 1984/85.

BUSINESS EDUCATION
INTRODUCTION
The Business Education Department of Sir Robert Borden High School aims to provide all
students with a background in business knowledge. Besides teaching the function of business
and the skills required for success, we provide the student with saleable knowledge and skills.
For the student planning a post -secondary education, skills such as typewriting and
shorthand will provide assistance in the form of easing the student's studies and providing a
source of income to help finance such studies. The theory courses can be used to provide an
easier entry into other occupations for both part-time and full-time employment (eg.
accounting, data processing, marketing, law, etc.).
For the students who wish to round out their academic education with valuable skills and
knowledge, we offer a useful programme.
The Ministry of Education provides that a student who has gained a minimum of eight credits
in business studies shall receive special recognition on his or her Ontario Student Transcript.
We suggest the student with a keen interest in business education consider one of the
following programmes of correlated subjects.
SECRETARIAL PROGRAMME
A student who undertakes a secretarial programme can look forward to growing employment
either full or part time. A recommended programme would be as follows:
Grade 9 Typing I (BKT 1G) and Introduction to Business (BBI IG)

TECHNOLOGICAL STUDIES
Introduction:
The aim of the techological studies department is to provide an opportunity for all students
(male and female) to obtain theoretical knowledge and practical experience in the
technolgical programme of their choice. The technological programmes are organized in such
a way as to offer students a choice of courses which will best meet their individual needs.
Courses designated as 2G or 2A are open to all students from grade 9 to grade 13. They are
introductory in nature and are recommended prerequisites for continued study in grades 11
and 12. Students entering grade 9 are informed that each course can be selected either at the
grade 9 or grade 10 level but not both. Students entering grade 10 are recommended to select
different intermediate options rather than selecting the senior course option that is a
continuation of their grade 9 choice. This is to give students an opportunity to experience
several different courses at the intermediate level. This will assist them in obtaining as wide an
experience as possible, and broaden their knowledge for better programme selection at the
senior level.
Courses designated 3G, 3A, 4G, 4A are open to all students who have successfuly completed
the recommended prerequisite courses. These courses offer a more in-depth study of the
subject introduced at the intermediate level. For example the recommended prerequisite for
TDA 3G Architectural Drafting or TDM 3G Mechanical Drafting is TDG 2G Drafting.
TEN 2A Electronics and TGR 2A Graphic Arts are new courses in 1984/85, offered at the
Advanced level of study. Itis hoped that TEN 3A, and TGR 3A will be introduced in 1985/86.
TEN 2A and TGR 2A will be prerequisites for these courses.
The technological studies department offers courses to help students reach these goals:
-specialization by students to obtain saleable skills for
immediate employment
-preparation for post -secondary education and future
employment
-general technological awareness for personal use.
We hope this information, as well as the course descriptions, will provide sufficient assistance
to students to enable them to select appropriate programmes in the technological studies area
to best meet their immediate educational needs, as well as their future academic and
employment needs. May we suggest that you consult with your parents and guidance
counsellor before making your final choice. Do not hesitate to contact the Department Head,
Mr. McCrossan, if you require any additional information concerning these programmes.
