There is a famous saying that every English teacher really loves:
“The pen is mightier than the sword.”
What the phrase means is that words have power and that, at least in some ways, they have more power than violence or armies or tanks.
But if words are powerful, then what do they have the power to do? Do they have the power to heal what is broken and make right what is wrong? Do they have the power to reconcile people who are estranged and unite what has been divided?
This course is about words of a particular group of people: the First Nations, Inuit, and Metis people who have lived on the land that is now called Canada since time immemorial. It is about the power of oral traditions and storytelling, and the power of narratives to shape the way that we understand the world. It is about how novels, poems, films, short stories, and other texts help us understand who we are, where we come from, and how we are connected to each other.
So perhaps hearing and reading these words, which are much more powerful than swords, could be a small step toward reconciliation and healing between all peoples who call this land home.

Hybrid
HP Active Living 12 is the capstone of the High Performance PE series, specifically designed for elite student-athletes. This course shifts from general participation to elite stewardship, assisting athletes in taking professional responsibility for their movement, nutrition, and leadership as they prepare for post-secondary competition and independent living. Students are challenged to refine their physical and mental wellness routines, recognizing that excellence is an act of worship and a discipline of the mind, body, and soul.
Requirements
This course is intended for high performing athletes, meaning they are involved in their sport at a competitive level, training 3-5 days a week and engaging in balanced physical activity as part of their dedication to sport.
Major Units and Topics
Unit 1: Performance Matstery (80 hours)
- Evidence-based logging of elite training cycles with a focus on monitoring and adjusting exertion levels.
- Development of a professional Leadership Portfolio, including a 500-word philosophy and documented impact metrics.
- Research into biomechanical efficiency and advanced recovery to allow for “lifelong participation”.
- A professional-grade plan covering performance nutrition and mental performance routines.
Assessment
The Athlete Portfolio:
- Students will submit a comprehensive digital portfolio that serves as their CLC 12 Capstone evidence.
- Progress is assessed through four major check-ins (at 20, 40, 60, and 80 hours).
- Entries must be supported by technical data (Strava, heart rate zones) and multimedia proof (slow-motion video analysis, time-lapse, or action photos).
- Assessment is based on the student’s ability to refine strategies and demonstrate reasoned decision-making regarding their long-term health and leadership impact.
- In the event of injury, athletes are expected to document their recovery as part of their resilient longevity research, communicating regularly with their teacher to implement professional accommodations.
