SCIDES is proud to offer educational programming designed to meet the unique needs of junior hockey players. Our tailored programming is ideal for junior hockey players as it works with the demands of training, competition, and travel to ensure learners are not sacrificing education for hockey or vice versa. Our Junior Hockey Program delivers comprehensive education that covers all BC graduation requirements and currently includes 30 full time students playing across the WHL, BCHL, and KIJHL.

Program Benefits

• 9 athlete specific elective courses from grades 10-12, with more in development, including 3 specific to hockey. 
• A dedicated program coordinator/advisor (Corey Hermiston) who is a former hockey player and coach with a deep understanding of junior hockey life. 
• Coordinator also teaches English, Social Studies, and athlete electives, enhancing program continuity and congruency.
• Individualized grad plan for full time students based on goals (BC graduation, Canadian University, NCAA, etc.).
• BC Certified teaching staff across all subjects, including a full time Student Support Services teacher.
