Easier for students to transition to a large high school from a larger middle school setting. French Immersion at Millidgeville North for grades 6-8. Bussing is already in place and HW/SF borders onto MNS. Students in Sistema at MNS are already familiar with the school.

Breakfast program. EAL support. Resource and Guidance support. Student Leadership Program. Other school activities such as Terry Fox Run, Jump Rope for Heart, Yearbook, Dances, Grade 8 trips, etc.
Policy 409 School Sustainability Section 6.7.1 The duty to consult is less for grade reconfigurations than for school sustainability studies and so, the timeframe for consultation can be much shorter, based on the DEC s discretion. However, the DEC must still demonstrate that the process was consistent with the principles of procedural fairness when they inform the Minister of the proposed grade reconfiguration.
6.7.2 The DEC will advise the Minister in writing when the school district intends to reconfigure grades and will then consult parents on the proposal. 6.7.3 After consultation, the DEC will inform the Minister of the school district s final decision on the grade reconfiguration. 6.7.4 Once the Minister has been officially informed of a reconfiguration, the superintendent shall inform parents of the relocation of students. Sufficient notice must be provided to permit relocated students and their families to participate fully in the programs and activities offered in the new school.
