On Saturday, Feb. 11, Belmont’s choir hosted 7 choirs from around the South Island and Burnaby. We opened the day with drumming and the singing of the Women’s Warrior Song, under the guidance of Elder Chipps and mentor Alana Johnson. Dividing into 2 large groups, students from a mix of all schools rehearsed together with guest clinicians before performing for each other. The afternoon was spent as an enthusiastic audience, celebrating the work of each choir. It was wonderful to be back together for the first time since the pandemic began.

As we make our way to Semester 2, we also start to plan ahead for the next school year. Below is an overview of the course selection process. Students will also receive more information in-person at school over the next two months. 

An important piece of the course selection process is that students are able to access their MyEd accounts. More information on accessing MyEd is available on the Belmont website: https://belmont.web.sd62.bc.ca/students/myed-student-portal-information/

Counsellors will be visiting classes from Feb 3-10 to go through the course selection process with students. Students can also connect with their counselor for help with selecting courses or accessing MyEd: https://belmont.web.sd62.bc.ca/resources/counselling/

Belmont Secondary continues to offer personalized, flexible learning opportunities for students. New for September 2023 we are introducing Online Learning as another way to provide choice for students. Belmont students will have access to SD62 Online Learning Course(s) within the Belmont Secondary School building. Students can choose to take one or more of their Grade 10-12 course(s) via online learning when they complete their BSS course selection.

Key Dates:

Jan. 16: 2023/2024 Course selection booklets are now posted on Belmont website: https://belmont.web.sd62.bc.ca/students/course-selection/ 

Feb. 3 – Feb. 10: Information on courses and the course selection information will be shared with students in grades 9-11 through class visits. 

Feb. 13 – 21: Gr. 9-11 course selection window

Your student can show you the courses they have selected on their MyEd account before the window closes on Feb. 21. Please ask them to show you and have a conversation about the choices they have made and how the courses will help them to meet their future goals.

We are looking forward to helping students plan ahead for success next year!

Thank you,

Belmont Admin Team
