Note: The Ministry of Education has announced that Online Learning will be centralized in 2023-24. More information will be shared as it becomes available. Should the centralized online school not be operational in 2023-24, Saskatoon Public Schools will continue to offer online learning for grades 9 to 12 through Online Learning Secondary at Marion Graham Collegiate.

ABOUT ONLINE LEARNING SECONDARY

The Online Learning Secondary (OLS) program offers Saskatchewan high school credit courses to students in an alternate delivery method. Students enrolled in OLS courses benefit from both asynchronous and synchronous learning opportunities. Asynchronous time is independent, where students complete work using the Blackboard learning management system. During synchronous times, students and teachers connect virtually in live sessions that complement, support and enhance independent work.

Students in grades 9 to 12 have the option to register as a part-time or full-time student. Full-time students have some flexibility in their school day to complete class work. Live teaching sessions are scheduled and strongly encouraged. Students who take part-time classes, in addition to courses from their home collegiate, benefit from flexibility in their day, unique online instruction and class offerings that are not available at their home collegiate.

DIVERSE COMMUNITY

The Online Learning Secondary program has students from throughout the city and province, and includes current high school students, recent high school graduates and those up to the age of 22 who require courses to meet Saskatchewan graduation requirements.
