Alternative & Adult Education Services' MANDATE
Alternative & Adult Education Services provides alternative
educational opportunities and programs
to youth, adults and children within the Edmonton
Catholic Schools’ community. The studentcentred programs
are highlighted by the outreach junior and senior
high school programs for students (grades 7-12) in
need of an alternative delivery model. As
society evolves, so must our education system adapt to change
and meet the needs of the community we serve. Alternative & Adult Education Services
is an integral component of that adaptation and often acts
as a bridge between basic education and lifelong learning.
