Post-Secondary Prep Challenge

Post-Secondary Prep Challenge – Semester 2

Glenlawn is offering an academic challenge designed for students who want to test their skills and experience the pressures of a traditional university-level Math or Science exam. This challenge is held twice a year, at the end of each semester.

Students who achieve the highest standing in each subject area and grade level will be recognized. Grade 12 students will receive their recognition at Convocation, while students in Grades 9-11 will be recognized during the first Parent Conference night in the fall, where other awards are also presented. Additionally, honourees will be celebrated in a dedicated TEAMS chat for participants.

Students opting to take part in the Post-Secondary Prep Challenge can select from the following options within their current grade:

  • Grade 9 
    • Math – June 17 - 8:30am – 10:30am
  • Grade 10 
    • Applied Math – June 17 - 8:30am – 10:30am
  • Grade 11
    • Pre-Calculus Math - June 17 - 8:30am – 10:30am

Each exam will be 2 hours in length and will consist of multiple-choice questions. Phones will not be permitted, except for English language translation purposes. Students are allowed to bring a calculator and pencils.

The exams will not be returned; however, participants will receive their scores. Students who choose to participate will be asked to ensure they are not missing their student conferences or last-minute instructional time in their classes.

Prep packages will be available for students by contacting myself or the office staff, and the sooner you sign up, the sooner you will receive your prep materials.

Deadline to sign up: June 13th 4:00 PM.
