In a KiHS classroom, a trained teacher mentor helps guide students through their courses, which are delivered using computers and broadband connectivity. Like other schools throughout Ontario, students can take 8 courses a year. The KiHS year is divided into 4 semesters, with students taking 2 courses in each semester. KIHS offers a mix of Academic courses which lead to university preparation, applied and locally developed courses.
