    Welcome to Sisler, chosen by Macleans magazine as one of the best schools in Canada! Sisler is the largest high school in

    Manitoba and is therefore able to oer you a wide variety of courses and programs not available elsewhere. Many of the following

    features are unique to Sisler: First Year University of Manitoba (Calculus Challenge course), First Year University of Winnipeg

    English, First Year University of Winnipeg/University of Manitoba Lan, Advanced Placement Chemistry, 10 computer labs, French

    Immersion, All-girls classes (if requested), Performing Arts, Pre-employment Program, English as an Addional Language Program,

    Technology Educaon, and most recently, the opportunity to parcipate in video conferences with other schools from around theglobe, to engage with the Vancouver Film School sta in developing animaon projects, to develop cyber security skills which are

    in high demand by employers.

    Sisler has a strong academic program and has consistently placed in the top echelon in the Math and English Provincial exams.

    Sisler oers a wide range of extra-curricular acvies that include a rst-rate daily Intramural Program and a well balanced highly

    compeve Athlec Program. Sisler athletes have always placed highly in volleyball, track & eld, curling, football, basketball,

    golf, rugby, and cross country. Sisler students have access to a school cafeteria, school store (The Agora), and the rst library to be

    totally computerized in the Winnipeg School Division. Our Visual and Performing Arts Department has won gold medals in

    internaonal compeons. The dance group, Sislers Most Wanted, has performed with the Royal Winnipeg Ballet before the

    Premier of Manitoba and at the Grey Cup. Our senior choir and dance group performed before Her Royal Highness Queen

    Elizabeth, the only school in the Winnipeg School Division selected to do so. Recently, Sisler was awarded $300,000 to further

    develop its stellar cyber security program.

    Sisler has also undergone a major upgrading of facilies. A new gym, a computer lab, a science lab, and the Taras Korol Theatre (in

    honour of a former teacher who turned down oers from Broadway and Walt Disney to work at Sisler) have all been newly

    constructed. Vast renovaons have taken place in the library, the life skills area, the Student Services Centre and the

    Administrave Oces. The costs totaled $5.4 million.

    Familiarize yourself with high school requirements and course content in this book to help you make the best choices. Consider

    your teachers' recommendaons, previous school experience, interests, abilies, and future goals.

    An asterisk (*) on the applicaon indicates a prerequisite or corequisite is required. A prerequisiteis a specic course which must successfully completed for a student to enroll in a parcular course. A corequisite is a specic course which must be taken eithprior to or along with a parcular course.

    The Universies of Manitoba and Winnipeg each have specic entrance requirements. These requirement sheets follow page 38-and are posted in the guidance oce. Besides entrance requirements there are other courses which will give students a greatchance of success aer graduaon. To become aware of other courses, students and parents should check out the appropriawebsites for entrance requirements. Where career plans are not denite, students should select courses that will provide tbroadest span of entrance requirements.

    Red River College requires a high school diploma for most of its programs. Many technology programs require Pre-calculus or AppliMath 40S. Each program has its own entrance requirements. Students should check the Red River College web site for details.

    The Advanced Studies program is designed for students who wish to pursue challenging accelerated courses in a variety of subject

    areas. Students may choose one or more courses in Advanced Studies. In Grade 9, students follow a prescribed curriculum as a

    group. Students may receive 1st year university standing during their Grade 12 year by wring the university exams in

    mathemacs, English, Lan and the Advanced Placement exam in chemistry and physics. Students who are not in advanced studies

    inially may enter the program later but should see a counsellor to idenfy the courses required.

    university/college; and the enriched/accelerated courses, which are intended for students who want an even greater level of

    challenge. All courses are literature based, with the four language skills -reading, wring, speaking, and listening -pracsed and

    evaluated. Students are expected to read outside of class me, and 10% of the mark in every English course is based on the

    Independent Reading Program, which requires students to read books on their own in addion to those studied in class. Studentswrite a nal exam in every English course.

At the end ofthis course, students earn credit for English I from the University of Winnipeg. There is a reduced fee of $395 (a course fee of $329plus a registraon fee of $80) charged by the university for this credit. (This fee is set by the university and is subject to change.)

    The purpose of this program is to develop listening, speaking, reading, and wring skills necessary for the academic and socialsuccess of students who have recently arrived in Canada and have a limited prociency in the English language. Integraon intomainstream subjects occurs as students become more procient in communicaon.Placement of Students: Students with limited prociency in English are interviewed, tested, and their previous academic recordsare evaluated. On the basis of this assessment, the students are placed into courses appropriate to their skill levels. Placements are

    exible and student progress is examined at the end of each semester. E-designated courses follow the Manitoba Educaon &Training approved curriculum for Grades 9-12 English/geography/history/math/science but have been adapted to assist students

    for whom English is an addional language. (Such adaptaons may include the development of learning strategies and specializedacademic vocabulary to build comprehension and overall language skills.) Therefore, they can be used to meet core requirementsfor high school standing. Upon successful compleon, students may enroll in the mainstream content subject at the same level ORproceed to the next level either in an EAL or a mainstream seng. Students currently enrolled in an EAL course who wish to move aregular (non EAL) English course require the permission of the English department head and must rst take a wrien assessment.
