Student Recognition

Honour Roll 

Rick Hansen Secondary recognizes students who show excellence in their studies through the Honour Roll.  Each term students who are on the honour roll receive a certificate from the principal.

Honour Roll recipients are students who have achieved 73 – 100% average in all classes with marks excluding modified courses, ESL and those without a full time teacher/classroom such as Work Experience, Apprenticeship, Independant Studies, Grad Transitions and Spares.

Frame of Fame

Each Friday, we celebrate students who have gone above and beyond in a variety of ways with our Frame of Fame celebrated on our Instagram account @rickhansennss

Force 10

At the end of each year, we post the TOP 10 students in each grade based on grade point average, athletic contribution, academic success, and most importantly, modelling Rick Hansen's motto of "Be the Best YOU Can Be."
