Graduation Assessments

As part of the graduation program, all students are required to write three graduation assessments: Literacy 10, Numeracy 10, and Literacy 12. The Literacy 12 assessment is new this year for all grade 12 students. Students graduating from the French Immersion Program will also be required to write the Évaluation de littératie de la 12e année in order to qualify for their Bilingual Dogwood. 

Students will write these assessments in the semester they have an English 10, Math 10, or English 12 class. We will be following up with students not registered for one of these classes. We will be providing prep sessions for students ahead of the assessments.

Évaluation de littératie de la 12e année

The Literacy Assessment 12 th  year - French Second Language - Immersion evaluates, among students in 12 th  year, the fundamentals of literacy.

Literacy is defined on the one hand as the ability to grasp the meaning of a variety of texts and to analyze them critically. On the other hand, literacy includes the ability to express oneself in various ways, for various purposes and according to the needs of the context.

The literacy assessment is not associated with a particular course, but rather touches on multiple learning disciplines as well as essential skills developed by students from kindergarten to the 12th year.
