Accelerated courses are for students who are currently in Grade 9 to Grade 12.  If you are a Grade 8 student and will be attending a DCDSB secondary school in the fall, check out our Grade 8 Reach Ahead Credit offerings.

Accelerated Courses - In Person

Accelerated Courses - Online

Note: Students must be in Canada for the duration of the course as VPN will not be supported outside the country.

Beginning with the cohort of students who entered Grade 9 in the 2020-21 school year, all students must earn a minimum of two online learning credits as part of the requirements for an Ontario Secondary School Diploma unless they have been opted out or exempted in accordance with the processes described in this memorandum.

*It is recommended that students have achieved a minimum of 75% in NBE3U or ENG3U prior to registering for ENG4U due to the volume of work within the compressed time frame.
