Course Description

Community Studies provides students with insights into the ways in which communities are shaped and operate.

This course offers students the opportunity to learn in a community context, both within and beyond the school environment.

In developing their own individual program, students have the opportunity to select from the following six areas of study:

  • Arts and the Community
  • Communication and the Community
  • Foods and the Community
  • Health, Recreation, and the Community
  • Science, Technology, and the Community
  • Work and the Community

An identifying feature of this subject is the independence it gives students in deciding the focus and direction of their community activity/community application activity.

Students expand and enhance their skills and understanding in a guided and supported learning program, by beginning from a point of personal interest, skill, or knowledge, and setting challenging and achievable goals.
