17 Compulsory Credits
13 Optional Credits
40 Hours of community service

While we do enhance our regular STEM courses with enriched content, students also have the option of taking math and computer science at Advanced Placement level.
Introducing AP Capstone Diploma Program
Beginning September 2023, our grade 9/10 students will be given the opportunity to obtain their AP Capstone Status alongside their OSSD. What has made this easier to implement, the the launch of AP Pre-calculus by the College Board - a curriculum suitable to reinforce Ontario mathematics for junior high school students.

Teachers
Our faculty is comprised of teachers who are knowledgeable, experienced, and passionate about the Art of Teaching. Our instructors are certified by the Ontario College of Teachers. TSS teachers aim not only to provide the highest level of instruction, but also recognize that teaching is a human-centred profession. Our instructors care about building relationships with students so that learners are comfortable to ask questions and seek extra help when needed. To reinforce this close dynamic, at TSS, our school conducts events, field trips and ongoing learning projects in order to bring our community members closer to each other.
At TSS, we pride ourselves on our talented instructors who encourage students to follow their passion for science and technology. We try to go above and beyond in presenting students with opportunities to learn outside the curriculum. Our goal is not only to teach students the course material for their high school diploma, but also to teach them to enjoy learning the course material themselves. Please contact us today, and we will be happy to answer any inquiries.
