Welcome

  • follow the Nova Scotia Public School Program curriculum, and

    **Postal Strike Procedures (June 15 2011):

    In the event of a mail strike, the following procedures will apply:

    Correspondence Studies
    As is currently the policy, students will be responsible for getting their course work to their marker.  Students who submit their work by email can continue to do so, students who usually mail their work can arrange for courier service at their own expenses if they wish.

    We will be unable to mail out any new registrations but will continue to accept walk-ins.

    Exams

    If exams are required for graduation purposes, LRTS will courier the exam to the marker or exam supervisor as applicable.  The exam supervisor can arrange to fax or scan a PDF copy of the exam and email it to LRTS.  We will then email the scanned document or courier the faxed exam to the marker.  Marks can be phoned in to the staff in Correspondence Studies.
    Exams for other grade levels which are not required for graduation can be postponed for the short term.

    Effective May 2, 2011, our office hours are 8:30 am to 12:30 pm and 1 pm to 4:30 pm, Monday to Friday. The office is closed for 30 minutes between 12:30 and 1 pm each day.
