KDS and KLC offer programs for every age of student.
Here is an overview of the Programs we offer:
Primary Blended Home Learning Program
Based out of our Fernie Campus, this program is for K-4 students and families looking for a home focused learning program that is mixed with teacher/classroom support / meeting times and cohort community outings. This program allows parents to drive the learning of their child, guided by full accredited BC certified teachers, and access to a wealth of resources, online learning programs, and community connections.
Middle Grades Blended Home Learning Progam
Based out of both of our Cranbrook and Fernie Campuses, this program is for grades 5-9 students who are looking for alternative to the traditional school setting. This program offers curriculum that is all online, but is supported by twice weekly in school classroom sessions, focusing on inquiry driven collaboration with peers and the teacher.
Community outings are also scheduled and part of the program. Students have flexibility in pacing, displaying learning competencies and assessment methods.
