Theme: The Quest for Social Justice?(Re)-Inventing Society

The curriculum in grade eight will guide, nurture, and develop in our students a sense of justice and equity.   Informed by understandings of the past, students begin to imagine the construction of a world in which they would like to live. The curriculum design and implementation is based on the exploration of the concepts of Imagination, Resistance and Reflection.

Guiding questions within this course of study may include:
How can we use imagination to understand the world and as a catalyst for social change?
How do we know about the intangible?
How do our ideals and imagination influence and change the world?
When do we shift from bystander to active participant?
How do we decide appropriate actions?
How do contexts affect perception and how do we document what we know?
How does reflection inform our progress?
How can we put our ideals into practice?
