The Academic Preparation (APP) is designed for students ages 13-17 as an introduction to the Canadian high school curriculum. Our teachers use a theme-based approach to create an engaging and interactive learning environment. Students will improve their English skills comprehensively through reading, writing, speaking and listening exercises. The APP Regular Program helps ease students into the new academic year by providing an early start in their educational training. The APP Plus Program is required for all students who plan on graduating from Bodwell High School in 2017. Students will be exempt from the

APP Plus Program only if special permission is given by their admissions officer.
