Arts & Technology Centre:  The Arts & Technology Centre is an extension of the Louis Riel School Division high schools for Grade 11 and 12 students. Students who choose ATC as part of their high school studies take the majority of their Grade 11 & 12 elective courses at ATC and their compulsory courses at their home school. Students typically attend ATC for one semester in Grade 11 for Part 1 of a program and then may return for another semester, in Grade 12, to take Part 2 of their program. Talk to your Student Services Teacher about other possible patterns. 

Students register at their home school, allowing them to participate in school events and extra-curricular activities including sports, music and student government. Students graduate with their classmates at their home school. In addition to their regular high school diploma and an ATC certificate, student in most programs earn a Technology Education High School Diploma. Students may also choose to complete all or part of a program following high school graduation (no tuition fees for the first 4 credits after graduation).

ATC students who hold evening or summer jobs may be eligible to obtain high school credits towards graduation and time credit towards continued apprenticeship training by applying for the High School Apprenticeship Program. Students are encouraged to bring and use their own electronic devices.

Students are encouraged to participate in intramural activities available at lunch time through our open gym program, as well as the student advisory committee (student government). 

See your Student Services Teacher to include ATC courses as part of your Grade 11 and 12 or Post-Secondary Plans.
