Our Programs
Regular Program at the CBE
Even though most of our schools offer a regular program, no two are quite the same. All schools teach according to Alberta Education’s mandated curriculum, however a school’s focus, optional courses and school activities are as unique as every school.
Classes Unique to Louise Dean School
The school supports our students by offering specialized Life Skill, Prenatal and Parenting classes. All of these courses are high school credit based, but they recognize the unique learning needs of our students. Students have the opportunity to freely and confidentially discuss issues related to pregnancy and the challenges that many young parents face. The classes are highly informative and personalized to support all of our students.
Teachers, nurses and social workers collaborate in teaching these classes.
Course Offerings
The school offers a full range of courses that lead to a High School Diploma or High School Certificate. Administration will work with the student to ensure the correct courses to obtain the students’ goals are met. The school also offers specialized 3 and 5 credit courses that support pregnancy and parenting. In the event that a student has not been successful in completing a course, administration and teachers will try to recover the course with the student. Instead of redoing the entire course, the student may be required to complete areas of a course where the student was not successful.
