Full Disclosure: Monday, November 27th, 2023
To ensure all drop requests are processed in Aspen, our internal MMR deadline is Friday, Nov 24th.
What is Full Disclosure?
The Ministry of Education has a policy of full disclosure. This policy states that all grade 11 and 12 courses attempted by students must be recorded on Ontario Student Transcripts. Full disclosure does not apply to students in Grade 9 or 10 courses.
Here in HDSB, our Guide To Secondary School says:
Full Disclosure – Following the Full Disclosure date (each semester) any Grade 11 or 12 course completed, dropped or failed will appear on a student transcript along with the marks earned in the course. Full Disclosure occurs five instructional days after the issue of the mid-semester Provincial report card. Full disclosure does not apply to Grade 9 or 10 courses
Now with midterm marks, senior classes can make an informed decision as to if a course should be dropped or not by Friday, Nov. 24th.
If there are any questions, please talk to your Guidance Counsellor or make a guidance appt.
