Principal's Message

The main goal of Frederick Banting Secondary Alternate Program is to provide an alternate form of attaining secondary school credits. Students come to Frederick Banting for many different reasons including needing high school completion, academic upgrading, flexible scheduling, or needing a change from the traditional high school model. We graduate over 60 students annually with many going on to apprenticeships, college or university.

Our program is designed to allow for a flexible style of education, yet provides a structure that ensures success for most students who prefer an alternate learning environment.
