REGISTER FOR THE ADVANCED PLACEMENT PROGRAM FOR THE 2013-2014 SCHOOL YEAR
The Regional Advanced Placement (AP) Program at St. Edmund Campion provides an enriched classroom setting for highly motivated students in the areas of English, Math, and French. History and Science will be added in grade 10. The program begins in Grade 9 with Pre-AP classes in which students study both the Ontario and the AP curriculum. This allows students to continue AP classes in Grades 11 and 12 that prepare students to write AP exams for advanced placement or credit in university. All strong academic students are encouraged to apply.
St. Edmund Campion will accept a limited number of students into the Regional AP Program in Grade 9 from across Brampton and Caledon. Admission into the program will be granted based on previous report cards, application form, as well as the student’s desire to commit to the level of study required by the enriched classroom setting.

STUDENT ACCIDENT INSURANCE
Effective September 2012 the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board requires that parents, guardians and adult students provide written acknowledgment that they have received information regarding Student Accident Insurance especially for those students participating in out-of-school excursions and/or extra-curricular sports activities.
As required under the Education Act, the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board arranges for the distribution of student accident insurance brochures (i.e., ‘insuremykids’). However, please be advised that the Board assumes no responsibility for the cost of the plan, applications, premium payments or claims; nor does the Board receive any remuneration from the Reliable Life Insurance Company. Furthermore, the Board does not and cannot insure students.
