Registration - Process
Registration Process
Registration at Island Discovery is ongoing throughout the year. We will be supported by SD47 (Powell River) Partners in Education effective July 1st. 2019. Transition is happening now with registration. We will continue to offer the choices of a part-time classroom program or full-time learning at home.
Go to Programs for more information on each of these options.
Additionally, we will offer Grade 8 & 9 cross enrollment and Grade 10 to 12 full time courses or Grade 10 to 12 part time courses. At this time it is uncertain whether these options will be offered in our classroom programs but work is underway – your expression of interest would help us with planning. Please contact Allan Saugstad (allan.saugstad@sd47.bc.ca) or 604-992-2370.
Families can live anywhere in B.C. and take part in our full-time homelearning option. Part-time classroom participation is only available in select locations.
We use our secure Google Apps for Education account in order to communicate and collaborate with parents. Parents must be willing and able to use this system in order to participate in our program.
Please follow these steps in order to enrol:
- Initial Call: Call our founder and leader Allan Saugstad at 604-992-2370 to learn more about the program and how it works and to have all your questions answered. It is important to ensure you are a good fit for the program and that the program is a good fit for you.
