Students entering Grade 9 in September 2027 have a new opportunity to shape their secondary school experience around their interests and build new skills.
The Athletic Academy at King City Secondary School is designed for students interested in careers in athletics, health, wellness and recreation.
Students will take a bundle of courses designed to increase their skills and knowledge in the field. This includes some of the school’s new sport-focused physical and health education credits, such as hockey. Students will also participate in a related cooperative education placement.
“We are thrilled to launch the new Athletic Academy at King City Secondary School,” said Principal Raymond Fung. “This program gives students with a passion for sports, health and wellness a dedicated pathway to build a strong foundation for success. It joins our robust suite of specialized options ensuring that no matter a student’s goals, they have opportunities to explore and thrive. Our goal is to empower student-athletes to pursue their ambitions, develop as leaders, and explore pathways that extend pathways that extend beyond high school.”
Applications for September 2027 are due January 14, 2027.
Families interested in the Athletic Academy can attend the King City Secondary School Open House on Thursday, November 26, 2026, from 6:30-8:30 p.m.
