Any time we go through a big change in our life, it's natural to have some nerves. It's important to know that you're not alone. You and hundreds of other students are starting grade 9 for the first time. Some students will come from other elementary schools, so it's a chance to meet new people.</p><p style="font-stretch:normal;font-family:arial, sans-serif;color:#595959;background-color:#ffffff;">High school also offers even more sports and activities than elementary school. There is a lot to choose from, and getting involved in activities is one of the best ways to meet people and make friends who have the same interests as you do.<br></p><p style="font-stretch:normal;font-family:arial, sans-serif;color:#595959;background-color:#ffffff;"><br></p><h1 style="margin:10px 0px;font-family:"segoe ui", arial;font-size:28px;color:#2d623a;line-height:normal;text-rendering:optimizelegibility;background-color:#ffffff;">Grade 9 Orientation<br></h1><p style="font-stretch:normal;font-family:arial, sans-serif;color:#595959;background-color:#ffffff;">For more information <a href="/Documents/Grade%209%20Orientation%20Poster.pdf" style="color:#0072b9;">click here!</a><br></p><p><br></p> | | | |

Cognitive behavioral therapy is one of the most effective forms of therapy. It works by helping you understand and change the thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are causing you problems. AbilitiCBT works the same way, but online. AbilitiCBT’s user-friendly platform makes it convenient to get help when you need it, where you need it. Our AbilitiCBT offering includes a special program to help you address anxiety symptoms related to the uniquely challenging aspects of pandemics: uncertainty, isolation, caring for family and community members, information overload and stress management.:<span> </span><a href="https://ontario.abiliticbt.com/home" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-auth="NotApplicable" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px none;font:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;">https://ontario.abiliticbt.com/home</a></span></p> | | | |
