West Coast is proud to support parents through Christian Distributed Learning right in their homes. Our teachers provide curriculum-based activities and track student progress, while parents have the opportunity to work side-by-side with their children.
Online Interactions:
Our Kindergarten to Grade 4 classes meet weekly online with a BC-certified teacher. For their Foundations Class, the teacher will guide students through various activities related to their current learning topic in subjects such as Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies. Students will also attend our Encounter (Bible) Class.
Students in Grades 5-8 meet online three times a week for a Foundations Class, Math Class and Encounter (Bible) Class.
We also host Tutorial Time twice a week for Kindergarten to grade 8. Teachers are available online at this time to answer questions. These are one of our favourite community times of the week!
See our Elementary Class Schedule for more details.
At West Coast Adventist School, we believe that the parents are the child’s primary teachers. Our role is to assist you in the academic and spiritual development of your child. When you make the commitment to school at home, it is important that parents realize that you will generally be responsible for supervising your child(ren)’s daily activities. A quality learning program is dependent on the collaboration between the parent and the teacher.
Specifically, it is expected that the parent will:
c. Grading formative assessment pieces
b. Phone calls
c. Live classes
d. Online forms
5. Provide the school with all documentation that the Ministry of Education expects to be kept on file.
6. Create and maintain an atmosphere for academic success. While you have flexibility in the scheduling of work and holiday times, please remember that the learner must complete all the outcomes given by the Ministry of Education.
9. Pray! Please pray for all our students, parents, teachers, and staff. Choosing to educate your children at home is a commitment to building young people that will make a positive difference in the world.
