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 formally recognized. Grade 12 students will receive their awards at Convocation, while students in Grades 9-11 will be acknowledged 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 18 - 8:30 - 10:30 AM)
• Grade 10
