Many young adults have not completed high school. There are a multitude of factors that contribute to this, many out of the control of the individual student. Our facility aims to provide those adults, aged 18-21, who have not completed high school the opportunity to complete a program that will enhance post-secondary education and career/employment opportunities.
We are committed to providing a mature, adult campus that supports the respective needs of students who are committing themselves to complete their education.
The Allan Blakeney Adult Campus is pleased to offer a variety of programs to assist students in completing or upgrading their Grade 12 courses.
We offer:
