The BETA (Bringing Exceptional Thoughts Alive) Mini-School at Alpha Secondary is designed for students in Grade 8 and 9 to enrich, challenge and support students who have demonstrated high potential, talent and ability. In an inclusive and supportive environment of intellectual peers, the students would participate in rigorous, complex, creative, cognitive challenges. Through engaging, in-depth, collaborative and self-directed study, they would have an opportunity to reach their intellectual, personal and social potential.  BETA Mini Flyer 2020
