School Programs and Services

F.W. Johnson Collegiate offers an array of courses to meet the requirements of a Saskatchewan High School Diploma. Our compulsory subjects combined with a range of electives allow students to explore their interests. To support the success of each student, teachers make the necessary adjustments to accommodate varied learning needs. We believe that a collaborative approach is necessary if we are to be successful - teachers working collaboratively with other teachers, with students, and with parents.

 

F.W. Johnson Collegiate promotes high academic achievement and the pursuit of life-long learning within a safe and caring environment. We continually strive to improve academic standings through the establishment of yearly goals developed by the staff and in consultation with our School Community Council. Students at FWJ enroll in up to five classes each semester. Each day is divided into 61 minute instructional periods and a 15 minute Student Advisory (JAG).
