Year Twelve was designed with a more creative and open approach in mind. The senior year is a year of preparation and transition, so Year Twelve was created to be open enough so that families who wanted students to take a dual-enrollment class or co-op class in preparation for college could do this with flexibility. This design was also meant to be open in the sense that students at this age have begun to develop more specific special interests. With respect to that, Year Twelve offers students several options in course of study in many main areas, allowing them a year of focused studies.
