Programs

Long-Term Program

The Long-Term program takes place over a single semester (September – January or February - June) or a full school year (September to June). Grades 5-12 international students are integrated into regular classes with local students. High school students (Grades 9-12) are able to gain credit for courses completed, and may also choose a program that leads to graduation with a Manitoba high school diploma. For those students requiring language assistance, our schools offer an English as an Additional Language program.

MVSD has three reporting periods for middle years students (fall, winter and end of year) and four reporting periods for high school students (two reports for each semester). Students in the Long-Term Program will receive an official transcript of completed credits.
