Course Selection

Choosing your high school courses is an exciting part of planning your future! Your course selections should reflect your interests, strengths and goals. Not sure what to take? That’s okay — there’s support to help you decide.

How to Choose Your Courses

You’ll pick your courses online using myBlueprint. But before you do, make sure to:

• Talk to your teachers about your options.
• Read the course descriptions.
• Chat with your Guidance Counsellor.
• Ask other students about their experiences in the courses you’re considering.

• Students who would like to return to Blakelock for an additional semester or year, are asked to complete this Thinking of Returning to TAB Google Form. They may access Course Selection forms and resources linked above for course information and complete their Course Selections by January 17, 2025. 

Grade 12 students who are not returning to high school next year will complete the “Not Returning” process.  Information regarding this process has been sent to Grade 12 students directly through their HDSB email accounts.  We ask that they complete this process (including parent/guardian emails) by January 17, 2025.

MyBlueprint

All students are asked to complete selections for next year by the specified dates through their www.myBlueprint.ca/Halton account. Students are not required to return a signed Course Selection form though parents/guardians will need to approve selections through an email function within myBlueprint.  Students are asked to please ensure they click the “submit” button when complete and to also send their parent/guardian their selections through myBlueprint for approval.  

Thinking About a Course Change?

Once you’ve chosen your courses, you’re expected to stay in them — but we understand things can change. If you’re having challenges or need to talk about switching a course, reach out to your Guidance Counsellor to discuss your options.
