| Academy of Academic Upgrading
This academy profiles Nutana’s strength in offering programming to students who wish to complete Grade 12, upgrade their previous marks, or pick up a class that they require for post-secondary training.
Academy Highlights: Quarter Classes · Students take only two classes at a time and complete each course in just ten weeks. · Students can register for classes four times each school year - September, November, January and April. Classroom Instruction · Teachers strive to provide learning experiences that are distinctly different than traditional programs. · Support from teachers and tutors are available outside of class time. Mature Students · Over fifty percent of our students are over the age of 18 and choose Nutana because of its comfortable adult atmosphere. · Students over the age of 22 are most welcome to attend but will be required to pay tuition. Services Available to Students Student Services · The Student Services office provides support services to students in the following areas: · School registration and records · Academic program information, preliminary assessment and planning · Personal relationship and crisis counseling for students and parents · Post-secondary education and career information and counseling · Referrals to support services within the school and community Tutoring · Students can make arrangements to meet their teachers at 8:30 each morning if they wish extra assistance. · Regularly scheduled noon hour tutoring sessions are also available. CanSask (Career and Employment Services) · An on site CanSask Career Consultant provides students with up to date information, services and resources so that they are better prepared to develop a career path and to pursue their goals. · Students can also access information on post-secondary training programs. · Information and support in finding a job is available as well. · iJob, a new and innovative career resource, is designed to support youth to be successful in making the school to work transition.

Re-Entry and Support Program · Students are provided with material and activities designed to review fundamental skills or to provide enrichment to support success in their classroom courses. · Course material is divided into packages so that students can work at their own pace. Nutana Extension Resource Re-Entry Venture (NERRV) · This is an afternoon program designed to provide alternatives for students who benefit from non-traditional curriculum delivery. · Students have the opportunity to work semi-independently on curriculum modules, finish courses from a previous quarter, or receive instruction in small groups. Resource Room Program · Students learn how to study, take notes, proofread, be organized, manage their time and write exams. · The Resource Room teacher also works with classroom teachers to adapt curriculum, instruction and evaluation in order to meet the needs of individual students.

I have found the quarter system to be a very effective way to learn while maintaining a full-time job. If you show up for class and do your work, you will be successful. |
