Palliser Beyond Borders continues to build brand at outreach schools

Palliser Beyond Borders rebranding continues to take shape, with board approval of a new naming protocol for outreach schools.

Palliser Beyond Borders is the division’s online school, as well as the umbrella for Palliser’s international student program and outreach schools at Coaldale, Vulcan, Picture Butte and Calgary.

To bring consistency to the outreach campuses, the board approved seeking Alberta Education approval for renaming Palliser Alternative Outreach School – the division’s newest outreach program in Calgary – as Palliser Beyond Borders at Calgary. The outreach campuses in the other communities would be similarly named: 

• Palliser Beyond Borders at Calgary
• Palliser Beyond Borders at Vulcan
• Palliser Beyond Borders at Picture Butte
• Palliser Beyond Borders at Coaldale

Palliser Beyond Borders was created in 2013-2014 as an online school. It was merged last year with the international program and has had an international student complete a high school credit program online from another country.

In 2015-2016, 671 students took classes at Palliser Beyond Borders.
