Students intending to register (grades 9-12) or enrol in courses (grades 10-12) need to be aware of the following:
- Course content is delivered online; paper resources are used in classes but distance learning/paper copies of the entire course are not available
- Students need to have the appropriate hardware and network connection to connect and learn online.
- A mobile device (phone, tablet, iPad, Switch, etc) or gaming console (xBox, PlayStation, etc) are not appropriate for online learning.
- Students require access to their own computer. Families with multiple children will need to have access to multiple devices.
- Students require a quiet learning environment that is equipped for school work. Common areas (e.g. the kitchen) are not appropriate for learning if there are other activities occurring at the same time.
- Success in online courses relies heavily on family supervision and guidance and the ability to self-start and self-motivate as a learner.
- Students must be committed to attending to learning (see description below).
- Students who have previously demonstrated a lack of attendance to learning with Palliser Beyond Borders or with their home school may not have their registration request for classes with PBB accepted.
