Background Starting in the 2007/08 school year, Graduation Transitions replaces the Graduation Portfolio Assessment found in the original 2004 graduation program. All BC secondary school students who are enrolled in Grade 10, 11 or 12 as of September 1, 2007, and beyond must demonstrate they have met the prescribed learning outcomes for:
• Personal Health
• Community Connections
• Transition Planning

Your son or daughter is given an opportunity to use a school district Internet account. The Internet is part of the “information superhighway” you may have heard about through the media. This computer technology can enhance educational opportunities by allowing students to access and use information sources from distant computers, communicate and share information with individuals or groups of other students, and significantly expand their knowledge base. Just as there are opportunities with the Internet, there are also some concerns. Without wanting to stress the potential for misuse, we feel it is important that you understand the district’s rules for Internet access when using a District provided Internet account.

Please read the rules and discuss with your son or daughter.
