Course selection details and timelines

 

Secondary students typically select eight courses per academic year. Information and support in planning for your future, selecting courses to meet individual interests and goals, post-secondary destinations, and course type preferences is available by reviewing the secondary school graduation requirements and from individual secondary school guidance departments and/or graduation coaches.

Course selection is an annual process completed by students using myBlueprint and their SCDSB login information to access myBlueprint. Families can also create an account where they can directly link to their child(ren)’s account. For more information visit www.myblueprint.ca/simcoe and select 'Sign Up'.
