Being able to connect to and interact with peers is an important part of the school experience. At SelfDesign Learning Community, we build that connection and interaction right into our core learning program.

During Online Movement Camp, SelfDesign learners gathered online to connect their moves to their emotions and work their hip hip groove with professional dance and movement experts.

SelfDesign_® Family Services strives to be “a steward of compassion and understanding within the SelfDesign community offering support to learners, families, Learning Consultants, mentors and contractors.” Given this, we are excited to be working with a group of keen grade 10–12 learners to launch SelfDesign’s own Gender Sexual Orientation Alliance (GSA).

At SelfDesign_®, at the core of our Kindergarten to Grade 12 online learning school, is the belief that learning happens all the time, and the learner is always at centre. Learning stems from curiosity and each individual learner’s passion and interests, whether that's at home engaging with family during game night, or connecting with nature in an old-growth cedar forest... Learning happens everywhere.

At SelfDesign_®, we believe that every learner has a unique voice, and our inclusive kindergarten to grade 12 program is committed to listening to each and every child – however they are able to communicate. Every learner with special needs is unique, and we reflect this by providing programming that is personalized or individualized to each learner.

Whether it's around sexual orientation and gender identity, or issues related to the interconnected nature of different aspects of identity and diversity – such as race, religion and ability – SelfDesign_® has always strived to be, and prided itself on being, an inclusive place where learners are comfortable to be themselves authentically.
