Getting Ahead with Reach Ahead Courses at Aubrey Academy

At Aubrey Academy, we believe in empowering students to reach their full potential. For ambitious Grade 8 students, our Reach Ahead Program provides the opportunity to get a head start on high school by earning credits early. Whether during the school year or summer, students can take high school courses with our support and guidance, helping them transition seamlessly into Grade 9.

What is the Reach Ahead Program?

The Reach Ahead Program allows Grade 8 students to take high school courses while they are still in elementary school. This opportunity, available at Aubrey Academy, gives motivated students a chance to:

• Earn credits towards their Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD).

• Build confidence by familiarizing themselves with high school expectations.

• Lighten their future course load, giving them more flexibility in high school.

How Does it Work?

1. Consultation with the Principal: We work closely with you and your child’s elementary school principal to assess readiness and decide on the appropriate course(s).

2. Flexible Learning Options: Students can enroll in Reach Ahead courses during the school year or over the summer.

3. Full Support: At Aubrey Academy, we provide individualized attention to help students successfully complete their courses.

4. Transcript Recognition: Once completed, the high school credit will be officially added to the student’s transcript, giving them a strong start when they enter Grade 9.

Benefits of Reach Ahead Courses

1. Get Ahead of the Curve: By completing a high school credit early, students gain a competitive advantage and ease their future workload.

2. Smooth Transition to High School: Reach Ahead courses provide students with a preview of high school academics, reducing anxiety and helping them adjust.

3. Personalized Support: At Aubrey Academy, we focus on smaller class sizes and one-on-one support to ensure student success.
