Will you be back next year?

Is your Grade 12 student considering upgrading any courses or do they still have graduation requirements to fulfil? If they’re planning to return to Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) in 2021-22—for semester 1 or 2—they must register as a returning Grade 12 (R12) student by Sept. 30, 2021.

If your child would like to return to their current school—for semester 1 or 2 next year—contact the applicable school office before the end of June or as soon as possible after school offices reopen in late August. School staff will provide specific details on how to complete the R12 registration.

If your child requires additional flexibility in their schedule next year, Next Step may be a good fit. Next Step offers flexible programming through online and in-person courses. If your child would like to register with Next Step as an R12 student, complete the Intent to Register form as soon as possible. The Intent to Register form can be completed by any EIPS families, regardless of where you live within the Division, as R12 programming through Next Step is offered across EIPS.

The 2021-22 R12 registration deadline for both current schools and Next Step is Sept. 30, 2021—even if your child will not start classes next year until semester 2.

If you have any questions, contact your child’s school or Next Step directly.
