The Getting Online (GO) Course

  • All Palliser Beyond Borders students are required to complete the GO course as an orientation to our systems. Once the GO course is completed, students will receive credits that will be counted towards an Alberta High School Diploma.
  • The GO course will be available for Palliser grade 9 students towards the end of the school year. Palliser schools can submit a request for the GO course during this time for a cohort of students.

Again thank you so much for everything, because if it wasn't for great teachers like you, I wouldn't have enjoyed school as much, and I probably wouldn't have discovered what I am truly passionate about. It's the teachers who have a connection with their students and share their passion are the ones who influence those around them the most. Thanks to the help from you and from my regular teachers in school, I was able to come out as a Most Improved Student and as a Top Performer in Social Studies 30-2. It goes to show what having good teachers and good programs can do!

Morgan, 12
