High School Graduation Diploma Requirements
Students who successfully complete high school courses receive credits towards a Manitoba High School Diploma. Students must earn a minimum of 30 credits of compulsory and elective courses in grade 9, 10, 11 and 12 to meet graduation requirements. General courses and advanced courses are offered in all grades. For students who have previously completed some high school in their home country, and are interested in pursuing a Manitoba High School Diploma, transcripts can be evaluated to determine how many Manitoba High School Credits can be assigned.
*** International students joining the program at the grade 12 level who are interested in pursuing a Manitoba High School Diploma, must complete two semesters.
Grade Placements
In most cases, students are placed in grades based on age appropriate placement.
School Placements
Students are assigned school placements based on space and program availability. Students may make a request for a specific school when they submit their initial application form and every attempt will be made to accommodate your request if it is received prior to our acceptance deadline. However, Louis Riel School Division International Student Program reserves the right to make the final placement decision.
English as a Second Language (ESL)
An ESL assessment is done for every new student for whom English is not their first language. This assessment helps to determine the best program and course level for each student. Previous school transcripts are also reviewed to determine what grade has been completed in student's home country and the marks received.
ESL support is provided at no extra cost for international students who require additional language support. Specialized ESL support is provided in all the high schools in our school division.
