Secondary School Plan for Success 2021/2022
Bakerview Centre For Learning
…a positive, unique and respectful community of learners
School Planning Team:
Jacqueline Hall, Dan Village, Erin Jones, Jodi Coleman, Mandelyn Erikson
Bakerview Centre for Learning is Abbotsford School District’s centre for alternate learning. We are a
positive, unique and respectful community of learners.
Bakerview is home to students in grades 9 through 12, the majority of whom are referred directly from
Abbotsford’s mainstream secondary schools. We provide supplemental services and supports for school-
age students who are experiencing limited success in their mainstream school.
School Context We also serve adult Continuing Education students who are returning to school to complete graduation
requirements or upgrade courses for post-secondary training and education through our Night School
program.
In the 2020-21 school year Bakerview helped 75 students realize their dream of achieving secondary
school graduation.

them for life after high school as responsible citizens?

identify, understand and develop skills, traits and habits that support success at school and in all aspects
of life after graduation.
