Jump Start! Grade 9 Literacy/Numeracy Prep is a summer program for Grade 8 students entering a Thames Valley District School Board (TVDSB) high school in September 2025. This program is geared towards students who would like to develop their Math and English skills in preparation for secondary school. Students will have the opportunity to build upon the knowledge base and processes foundational to Grade 9 Math and Grade 9 English. This year students will be granted a secondary credit if both programs are successfully completed.  Students will be granted a GLD2O credit.
