Foothills Flexible Learning
In addition to our rich classroom experiences, Foothills offers a variety of flexible programming options to our families.
Hub@Home (Grades 1-12)
Beginning September 2020, the Foothills School Division Hub Program is expanding to offer online programming from Grades 1 to 12. Hub@Home is designed for students who are interested in learning from home, need greater flexibility in pacing, when they access their learning and where they learn. Students remain connected to their school and will access resources and teacher support through the Hub@Home program.
If you would like to know more or would like to access Hub programming for your child, please visit this webpage or speak to your school principal.
The Hub (Grades 10-12)
The Hub is a blended learning program that exists within our current High School Structure. It provides students with the flexibility of online programming with the face to face support of the regular classroom. We currently offer 38 High School courses including High School Mathematics, Sciences, Social Studies, English and Calm. We also offer programming in Physical Education, and General and Personal Psychology.
If you would like to know more about The Hub, please speak to your school counsellor.
