Complementary Courses
Nellie Carlson offers the full complement of core classes approved and required by Alberta Education. Students study English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, French as a Second Language, Physical Education, and Health.
In addition to the core curriculum, students at Nellie Carlson have the opportunity to explore a variety of complementary courses. In Grade 7, students are introduced to four such courses: Learning Strategies, Art, Career and Technology Foundations (CTF), and Food Studies. In Grades 8 and 9, students can further personalize their learning by selecting complementary courses based on their interests. Course selections are made after registration and are scheduled based on availability. While we make every effort to accommodate student preferences, course offerings depend on enrollment numbers.
