Exam Schedule 

The June 2025 Final Assessment and Exam Schedule is now live on the JCS Website. You can find it on the Exams Page and as a news article on the main page. Please ensure you read over the JCS Student Final Assessment and Exam Expectations and go over it with your student to ensure they do not invalidate their exams. 

Work Experience 

  • A friendly reminder of the following for wrapping up Work Experience this year: 
  • All Timesheets and a final Year End Evaluation are due on June 10. 
  • If you wish to collect hours over the summer, please stop at the Work Experience office and scan the QR code for Chinook Learning that is posted on the wall. 
  • All Grade 10 and 11 Work Experience students must either visit Mr. Jorgensen in person or send him an email stating where you would like your Work Experience credits to go this year. Anything less than 3 credits can be banked until next year, but 3 and more must be allocated to a 15, 25 or 35 level on your transcript. Again, this deadline is June 10. 
  • All this information is posted outside of the Work Experience office in the 3rd floor learning commons. 
  • Please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Jorgensen (kjjorgensen@cbe.ab.ca) if you have questions or concerns. You may book appointments in the main office, or drop-in during Periods 1, 2 & 3.

Information from the Student Success Centre 

Every student at JCS is enrolled in the Student Success Centre (SSC) D2L shell. Lots of valuable information will be posted there. Students are encouraged to log in and keep up to date with the available information regarding post-secondary applications, university open houses, and scholarships. Students should also review the D2L monthly calendar where various upcoming post-secondary events will be posted. 

Course Change Requests for the 2025-2026 School Year  

On Monday, May 26, a form will be available in the Main Office for current Grade 10 & 11 students who wish to adjust their course requests for the 2025-26 school year.  Before completing the form, students need to log into PowerSchool (on the browser, not the app), click on ‘Course Registration’, and review their courses.  If a student does not have any changes to make, no further action is required.  If a student wishes to make a change, the form must be completed and returned to the Main Office by Friday, May 30 at 1:00 pm.  Our first priority is to accommodate changes for academic course levels (eg. Math 20-1 to Math 20-2).  Students can request to change an option; however, there is no guarantee that it will be possible. 

Diploma Prep Courses

There are several Diploma Prep options available for Grade 12 students who wish to have a comprehensive review prior to writing their diploma exam(s) in June. Options vary in price and are available in-person or online. 

CBE Summer School

Registration for CBE Summer School has now closed. Once course requests have been entered and accepted by CBE Summer School notifications will be emailed to students/guardians who completed the request form during the week of June 2-6.
