Course selection
Course selections are done during the months of February and March. It is very important to choose your courses wisely. We highly recommend that your parents are involved in every step of the process. Informed decisions early will lead to less stress in the later years of high school.
We use myBlueprint as a tool to select courses.
For Grade 8 students coming from our Feeder schools, you will choose your courses at your Elementary school.
For all other students you will need an appointment to choose courses at Kennedy. Please contact the guidance office.
If you ever need help with your selections, our Guidance Counsellors are there to help!
