Pre-Calculus 11 and SPIDER at PHSS

We have to be innovative at PHSS to ensure that our students get the opportunity to take the courses that they want, and need, to pursue their post-secondary goals. One of the ways that we do this is by working with the SPIDER Program, part of the Sunshine Coast Alternative SChool, which allows our students to take distance learning courses while attending PHSS. The students in this photo are taking Pre-Calculus 11, while the rest of the class is taking Foundations Math 11.

To be successful with distance learning courses students need to be motivated and willing to work independently. We are fortunate that Miss Mullins is willing to provide some support for these students. The SPIDER Program also provides teacher support via e-mail, telephone or face-to-face support. The SPIDER support teachers usually visit our students, at PHSS, monthly.


Enjoy the awesome weather and have a great weekend.

Until Monday.

Mr. H
