As part of the current education reform, the school’s mission is to impart knowledge to students, foster their social development and give them qualifications. Underpinning this mission, the Education Act, the Basic school regulation for preschool, elementary and secondary education and the Québec Education Program reaffirm the importance of academic and career information and counselling in preparing young people for the increasingly numerous challenges they will have to meet in society and the job market once they have completed their studies.
