MIDDLE YEARS PROGRAM

We are up for the challenge of engaging the Middle years students!  The KDS Middle Years Team is a team of dedicated, caring teachers committed to your student’s success.​

We prioritize:

• Connection, then content.

• Flexibility and choice.

• Project based learning and individualized educational opportunities.

• 21st century learning, building skills in communication, critical thinking, creative and innovative thinking, and personal and social responsibility.

• Integrated curriculum, which aims to inspire students to learn while having fun.

• Opportunities to connect with other learners during  our virtual meet ups and f2f collaboration times, with campuses located in both Fernie and Cranbrook.

• A truly inclusive educational environment, where all learners have a chance to learn at their required pace. Success over schedule.

• Outdoor Ed Connections!  Opportunities to take the learning outside and apply it in real situations while creating an appreciation for the natural environment that makes up the Kootenays.

• Access to Special Education resources and support.

• First Nations (Aboriginal Education) resources, funding, tutoring support, and cultural events.
