Canadian and World Studies

The Canadian and World Studies department offers quite a wide range of classes for each grade. Grade 9 students focus mainly on Canadian Geography, grade 10 students study Civics and Citizenship and Canadian History since World War I, grade 11's focus on Parenting, Introduction to Anthropology, Psychology, Sociology, Canadian Law, World History to the end of the 15th Century, and being brought back this year, American History. Finally, grade 12 students can take course on Parenting, Challenge and Change, Philosophy, World History since the 15th Century, and Law. These classes are all relevant to the real world so a lot of what students learn in these classes will help with real world problems and help them develop a deeper understanding of society.
