  10. Consolidation of the James Anderson Learning Centre and APEX Secondary Programs Educational Rationale for Decision • Moving the JALC program will provide additional educational opportunities for both programs • Discussions have taken place throughout the 2013-14 school year regarding the creation of a new Alternative High School that would incorporate learners at JALC, APEX and others where the current traditional structures do not meet their needs • APEX and JALC students will benefit from increased educational opportunities (course offerings, off-site possibilities and flexibility) that can not be provided to the current cohort of less than 100 students • The James Anderson site is inadequate for the needs of the student body (lack of classroom, gym and cafeteria space) DPAC Meeting May 15, 2014
