GAP stands for the Grad Adapted Program and it is designed to help those students who face learning challenges in the areas of reading, written output and executive functioning skills. Students in this program graduate with the BC Dogwood. Students can be in GAP for all their courses or for some GAP and some online or blended with TLA. Students in GAP may not be cross enrolled with another school except in cases that have been approved by the vice principal and GAP coordinator.

Students are encouraged to meet the requirements of their courses simultaneously through project work. When possible, students can work with other peers in the program to complete a project. There is a great deal of flexibility for students in IGS to pursue topics of their own interest or to follow a textbook or program they are familiar with from previous years. The program is truly adaptive to the needs and preferences of the student.

Introduction to Online and Blended Learning gives students the basic skills needed to successfully navigate TLA’s online courses. Students will learn about The Hub, school email, cloud-based document creation, virtual classes, and of course how to upload assignments, take quizzes and properly participate in forum discussions. Throughout the course, students can demonstrate proficiency in the tools and skills that are widely used at TLA Online and gain two graduation course credits.
