Want to attend Learning Alternatives?
Learning Alternatives works alongside students and families within the Nanaimo Ladysmith Public Schools district. Our programs are strategically crafted to provide assistance to students who have exhausted the resources available at their designated catchment area schools. Existing students within School District 68 can initiate a referral to Learning Alternatives through their respective catchment schools. Additionally, students who have not previously been enrolled in a Nanaimo Ladysmith school or have been absent from schooling for an extended duration may direct correspondence to Brett Hancock, Principal of Learning Alternatives, via email.
*As of September 2023, all Learning Alternatives programs now operate at Woodlands Secondary School.
