Our Programs
Our Senior School empowers students to transition confidently into the next chapter. With an average class size of just seven students, we provide personalized mentorship that helps students lead with their strengths, communicate clearly, think critically, and self-advocate. Through dedicated post-secondary planning, over 95% of our graduates continue on to the post-secondary pathway of their choice.
Academics
Our Senior School students follow the BC provincial curriculum leading to the Dogwood Diploma, but the experience is delivered in a multisensory fashion to accommodate each student’s unique learning profile.
Beyond the core subjects, we offer a robust selection of academic electives and experiential learning opportunities. A highlight of our Grade 11 year is the Odyssey program—a featured Outdoor Education cohort that combines academic credit with wilderness experiences, fostering leadership and resilience in the natural world.
Fine & Applied Arts
We believe every student has unique talents to be discovered. Our Fine and Applied Arts program provides a welcoming space for students to explore their personal strengths through electives that emphasize craftsmanship, creativity, and practical problem-solving. Senior students can refine their skills in a wide variety of areas including woodworking, robotics, foods and nutrition, digital media, photography, studio arts, and drama.
Athletics
Athletics are a cornerstone of student life at Fraser Academy, fostering a strong sense of school spirit and personal growth. We offer a diverse range of individual and team sports, providing students of all skill levels the opportunity to challenge themselves and build lasting friendships.
We offer a variety of individual and team sports through the GVISSA, ISEA, and ISAA leagues, with many students competing at the Provincial level. Our Senior School teams participate in cross-country, volleyball, basketball, swim, and track & field, while our ski and snowboard team compete throughout the winter. Whether on the court or the mountain, we encourage every student to build resilience and take pride in being a Mustang.
Post Secondary Planning
Graduating from high school, making decisions about higher education and choosing a career path can be a daunting task for anyone. Transition planning helps our students deal with these exciting yet challenging decisions. Through the Graduation Transitions & Post-Secondary Planning program students gain a better understanding of their talents, interests and values. They’re able to explore educational options and are prepared to make focused decisions about their futures, whether they choose college, university, travel, internships or work. This intentional preparation ensures our students are truly future-ready, with 95% of our graduates receiving acceptances to their post-secondary choices.

Extracurricular & Clubs
We go beyond the books to offer our students a wide selection of activities designed to encourage creativity, boost confidence, engender co-operation and develop life skills. In addition to a wide breadth of extracurricular clubs, we provide active and experiential learning through an enriched Outdoor Education program.
Our student council also builds the community spirit through school-wide initiatives, theme days, and events such as Mark It Read for Dyslexia awareness, SMILES week, and our welcome back themes in September. Additionally, the school year is capped off with Mustang Mayhem, a school wide colour group battle of mights through competitions, intramural sports, and ultimately Mayhem day to award the Mustang Cup.
I owe a great deal of my success in post-secondary studies to Fraser Academy’s dedicated professionals. They gave me the encouragement and strength I needed to persevere.
