Community College? Apprenticeship? Work? Vocational and education planning is important and the subjects you select will have long range implications. 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. 3 C. DIPLOMA REQUIREMENTS ***(For students who entered secondary school prior to September, 1984)*** A SECONDARY SCHOOL HONOURS GRADUATION DIPLOMA (Grade 13 - S.S.H.G.D.) will be granted to a candidate who obtains a minimum of 6 credits from subjects offered in Year 5 level or the O.A.C. level. A SECONDARY SCHOOL GRADUATION DIPLOMA (Grade 12 - S.S.G.D.) will be granted on the recommendation of the principal to a student who has completed satisfactorily a minimum of 27 credits with at least 3 credits in each area of study. A credit is granted in recognition of the successful completion of a course that has been scheduled for a minimum of 110 hours. At Sir Robert Borden, every course offered has a value of I Credit. As part of the diploma requirements each student must have credit in the following complusory courses: English 4 credits (2 of which must be at senior level) Mathematics 2 credits Science I credit Canadian Geography I credit Canadian History 1 credit NOTES: 1. At Sir Robert Borden High School the Canadian History requirement may be fulfilled by taking course HCT 2G, HCT 2A, or HCV 2AF. The Canadian Geography requirement may be fulfilled by taking course GCA IG, GCA I or GCA IAF. The Science requirement may be fulfilled taking one of SNC 1 A, SNC I G, SNC 2A or SNC 2G. 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, 10 and 11. Students in Grade 12 are strongly recommended to take a full programme of eight (8) courses, but are required to take a minimum of seven (7). Forvalid 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 a Secondary School Graduation Diploma. (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. Planning for University Students would be wise to take a wide range of academic subjects in their pursuit of the 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, informa};^^ sessions, and counselling are services regularly provided to students by the Guidanc tment to help them plan for programmes at universities. Parents and students are encouraged to contact counsellors to receive asa -e in preparing for university and community college. 8. Preparing for Community College and/or Apprenticeship Some three year programmes at community colleges such as Algonquin specify certain advanced level subjects as prerequisites. However, the basic requirement for entry to a community college is the S.S.G.D. Many students who have taken subjects at the general level (I G, 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. I C. DIPLOMA REQUIREMENTS ***(For students entering secondary school in or after September, 1984)*** An Ontario Secondary School Diploma (O.S.S.D.) will be granted on the recommendation of the Principal to a student who has satisfactorily completed a minimum of 30 credits consisting of 16 complusory credits and 14 electives. A credit is granted in recognition of the successful completion of a course that has been scheduled fora minimum of 110 hours. At Sir Robert Borden, every course offered has a value of I credit. The compulsory credits are: 5 credits in English (at least 2 in the Senior Division) -i.e. Gr. 11, 12 or O.A.C. (Ontario Academic Credit) I credit in French 2 credits in Mathematics 2 credits in Science I credit in Canadian Geography I credit in Canadian History 1 credit in a Social Science (Senior Division) 1 credit in the Arts 1 credit in Physical & Health Education I credit in Business studies or Technological studies NOTES: I. In planning a programme of studies, students should consider grade 9 and 10 as a unit. The following programme is recommended: Grade 9 English Mathematics Science Geography French Phys. Ed. Arts compulsory (or any elective) Bus.Ed./Tech. compulsory (or any elective) Grade 10 English Mathematics Science History Elective Elective Arts complusory (or any elective) Bus-Ed./Tech. compulsory (or any elective) 2. Courses which satisfy the compulsory Arts credit are: ADA 2A, AMA IA, AMI IA, AVD 2G, AVI IG, AVI IA Courses which satisfy the compulsory Business Education/ Technical credit are: BAI 2G BKT 4G TIM IG2 BAP 2A BOS 4G TIM I A I BBI IG DIC 2G TGR 2G BKT IG DIC 2A Courses which satisfy the compulsory Senior Social Science credit are: BLW 3G GPH 3AF HXE 4G BLW 3A GUR 4A HXE 5A BLW 4A GUR 4AF NFF 3G CDR 3AF GWI 5A NFR 4G GCR 5A HWC 3A NFS 4A GHU 4G HCN 5A HSC 3G GPH 3G HWT 4A HSC 3A GPH 3A HMV 4AF HSD 3AF NSO 5A 3. Areas of Concentrations Students who take at least 8 business courses will have a Business concentration recorded on their student transcript. Students who take at least 8 technical courses will have a Technical concentration recorded on their student transcript. 4. Course Load We encourage students not to specialize too early and to take the broadest programme possible. Students in grades 9, 10 and 1 I 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. In the fifth year students must take a sufficient number of credits to obtain their O.S.S.D. or to complete the 6 O.A.C.'s necessary for University entrance. 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 third and fourth year and would require a student to limit the number of electives. The Council of Ontario Universities has stated that there will be no "bonus points" for quickness of completion of the O.S.S.D. Completion in 4 years will not be rewarded. Selecting an appropriate O.A.C. 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. 6. Preparing for Community College and/or Apprenticeship Some three year programmes at community colleges such as Algonquin specify certain advanced level subjects as prerequisites. However, the basic requirement for entry to a community college is the O.S.S.D. Many students who have taken subjects at the general level (1 G, 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 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. D. COURSE CODES All secondary schools in the province of Ontario now use a set of common course codes i) The first three characters indicate the subject: a) The first character is an alpha that indicates the subject or subject group. It relates to the curriculum guideline. b) The second character is an alpha that indicates the course group or subject/course group. The curriculum guideline determines this grouping. c) The third character is an alpha that indicates the specific course. It relates to the curriculum guideline. BAP - Accounting MAT - Mathematics ii) The fourth character is a numeric that indicates the grade at which the course is offered. An OAC is represented by "0" (zero). MAT 1 A - Grade 9 mathematics MAT 2A - Grade 10 mathematics ENG OA - O.A.C. level English. iii) The fifth character is an alpha that indicates the level of difficulty of the course. MAT 1 B - Basic MAT IG - General MAT IA - Advanced 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 lake 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 ..,vel 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. iv) If 'F' appears as the sixth character, the course is taught in the French language: GCA I AF v) If 'E' appears as the sixth character, the course is an enriched advanced level course: MAT IAE 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 an 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). r. SPECIAL PROGRAMMES 1. The Independent Studies programme is available to Grades I I 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. 2. The Co-operative Education programme is a joint effort between the school and the community to provide students with learning experiences outside the classroom. It is an attempt to assist students in making the transition from school to work and become familiar with the realities of the labour market. The Co-operative Education programme is open to students who will be in Grade 12 next year and who can graduate with 6 credits. (Some grade 1 I students may be accepted under special circumstances.) The Co-operative Education programme consists of two related components; one out of school and one in -school, each giving relevance and reinforcement to the other. The student will take four courses in -school, preferably in the morning, which will allow the student to spend at least 2 1/2 hours at their training station daily. One of the students' in -school courses will be tied to their out of school training. This course will have a value of 3 credits, if a student puts in at least 300 hours on thejob. (A student choosing to take the Co-operative Education programme can only earn a total of 6 credits in I year.) Co-operative Education may appeal to students in three areas. (a) Academic Student Programme -Academic students may explore career possibilities in the area in which they are considering advanced studies eg. Sciences, Mathematics, French, Geography, English etc., to find out if they really like it, before spending years on Post Secondary Education. (b) Skill Programme - Students who have or are developing in school Business or Technical skills such as Office Procedures, Accounting and Computer Studies or Graphic Arts, Machine Shop and Woodworking, further develop their skills and gain valuable experience when they receive on the job training. (c) Community Involvement Programme - Students who are studying society and the family in courses such as Man in Society, Family and Child or Physical Education can contribute to society and their own understanding of it and where they fit in by working in social agencies, elementary schools, nursery schools and hospitals. This can also help them to choose a career. Students interested in Co-operative Education should list it on theiroption sheet. They will be interviewed and will complete an application form before being considered. Because of resource constraints etc. a limit might have to be placed on the number of students selected for this programme. More information can be obtained by making an appointment with Mrs. Bewley in the Co-operative Education office, any afternoon. 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. 10 G.

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 forms part of this handbook.The schools' evaluation and examination policies, as well as the policy governing course transfers during the year are explained in the student handbook. This handbook should be viewed as a companion document to this programme booklet. I. ONTARIO STUDENT TRANSCRIPT All transcripts issued will be on the new common Ontario Student Transcript form. Each course successfully completed by the student will be recorded on this transcript. The credit value and level of difficulty will also be indicated. Students who have taken a minimum of 8 courses in either Business Education or Technological Studies will have this concentration recorded on the Student Transcript. J. SEX EQUITY All courses and programmes at Sir Robert Borden are available to students of both sexes. The philosophy of sex equity permeates all aspects of the school's curriculum, policies, methodology, and assessment procedures. DESCRIPTION OF COURSES OFFERED The following course descriptions are intended as a guide to help in the selection of a study programme suited to the student's interests, abilities and goals for the future.

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 IG) and Introduction to Business (BBI 1G) Grade 10 Typing II (BKT 2G) and one of the following: Accounting (BAI 2G or BAP 2A) or Introductory Computer Studies (DIC 2G or DIC 2A) Grade I1 Business Communications I (BSP 3G), Shorthand (BSH 3G) and one of Data Processing (BPC 3G or BPT 3A), Accounting (BAP 3A), Law (BLW 3G or BLW 4G), Marketing (BMK 3G), or Mathematics for Business and Consumers (BTB 3G).
