International Education in Maple Ridge Pitt Meadows

Seit 1993 nimmt der Schulbezirk 42 Schüler aus aller Welt auf. Im International Program werden sowohl akademische als auch kulturpädagogische Kurse angeboten und ausländische Schüler kommen im Rahmen der vielen angeboteten Aktivitäten in engen Kontakt mit kanadischen Schülern.

Maple Ridge und die umliegenden Gemeinden sind ein sicheres, ländliches Umfeld für die Schüler – eine von herrlichen Bergen geprägte Umgebung, die zwischen dem Fraser Valley und dem Küstengebirge gelegen ist. Maple Ridge ist weniger als eine Autostunde (ca 40 km) von der Weltstadt Vancouver entfernt.

Das Internationale Bildungsprogramm im Schulbezirk Maple Ridge Pitt Meadows gibt ausländischen Schülern die Möglichkeit, Englisch zu lernen und am regulären, akademisch ausgerichteten Unterricht teilzunehmen, der zum Schulabschluss (Graduation) in British Columbia führt. Es besteht wahlweise die Möglichkeit, die Schule für ein
Semester, ein Jahr oder bis zur ‚Graduation’ zu besuchen.
Angeboten werden darüber hinaus Sommerkurse sowie

High School in Canada

This program is directed to high school students between 13 and 19 years of age. It has been designed for international students who wish to study for one or more school terms in Canada, while living with a Canadian homestay family.

The high school year from September to June has a Semester program (September to February; February to June) and a Year program (September to June). International students follow the same plan of studies established by the provincial Ministry of Education and they integrate into their schools in the same way that Canadian teenagers do.

Programs

Students are placed into one of our six secondary schools with the goal of fully integrating them into the regular classrooms. A one-year secondary school program is comprised of eight courses of study, including the mandatory core subjects of English, mathematics, social studies and sciences as well as several courses of the student’s own choice. If needed English as a Second language (E.S.L.) instruction is also offered to help students adjust to the Canadian school and to cope with classroom English.

Courses of study include

Arts/Graphic Arts, Mathematics, Business Education, Physical Education, English, Communications, Sciences, Fine Arts (Drama, Music), Social Studies, Home Economics, Technology, Education, Languages
