active intra-mural program including a wide range of sports, drama
and musical activities. The school also has a well developed outdoor
education program. It can house a maximum of 450 students. Parent

Hudson Bay Composite High School is a grade 7 to grade 12 school. The school offers all the normal academic program requirements for grade 12 graduation and many optional courses. A full range of modified academic credits are offered at the grade 10, 11 and 12 levels. The school has consistently achieved high academic standards, which have been reflected in the success of former students in their post-secondary education in the number and range of scholarships that have been obtained.
An extensive extra-curricular program is offered
including volleyball, basketball, track, badminton, curling, cheerleading,
softball, and dance. The school is very proud of its football program,
which has resulted in several appearances at the Provincial Championship
level. The school has a wide range of non-sporting activities including
a year book, photo-club, and an active peer counseling group.
The Cumberland Community College operates a branch
in Hudson Bay. There is a local coordinator and qualified instructors.
Program offerings include an adult up-grading course and university
and technical institute classes. An S.C.N. unit assists in the provision
of the more specialized type classes. Classes are also offered using
public school space, when specialized equipment is required.
