HDSB is hosting a number of after school virtual events to introduce students and their families to the range of experiential learning opportunities available in HDSB schools and the wider Halton community, and how to take advantage of them. Part of the Board’s Experiential Learning Initiative, the sessions are geared to students from Grade 7 to Grade 12. Each session is on Thursday, starting February 3 and continuing to March 3, from 4:30 - 5:15 p.m. and each session features a speaker from the Board or a community organization. No pre-registration is needed; there is a separate link for each of the events.
