Reporting to the Co-ordinating Principal - African, Black, Afro-Caribbean Student Success, the Graduation Coach will assist with leading and implementing programs, services, and other supports to meet the needs of Black students who are underserved, with a focus on student success to high school graduation and beyond.

Coaches work to engage Black students who are underserved through developing relationships and affirming their identities and cultures. As members of the CORE team, made up of school staff including administrators, graduation coaches advocate for and support student progress. An understanding of the advocacy needed to support each student is developed through ongoing mentoring sessions with students, consulting with families and school staff, and connecting students with supports available both within the school setting and in the broader community.
