SPORTS CONCENTRATION PROGRAMS (FOOTBALL, SOCCER & HOCKEY)

The Sports Concentration Program is for students in Secondary 3, 4 & 5 at Laval Liberty High School. A Student is eligible to register and remain in the Sports Concentration Program if he/she meets the following criteria:

  • Academic Excellence: The Student has a minimum 75% overall academic average (or has received a special recommendation from teachers & administration). Students are also expected to maintain or improve their academic average from the previous term.

  • Athletic Performance: The Student must complete a comprehensive and thorough skills and ability test specific to his/her chosen sport.

  • Citizenship: The Student must maintain respectful and constructive conduct with all members of the school community. This requires that the Student displays social responsibility equal to that of a good citizen.


  • In addition to regular school fees, a concentration fee will be charged to cover the additional cost of the purchase of equipment, special workshops, health services, participation in league play and other related events and the additional expense of transportation. All Student Fees are subject to the approval of the governing board on an annual basis. These Concentration Student Fees must be paid in full (cash, cheque or post-dated cheques) by the end of the first week of school. Unpaid fees may be grounds to remove a student from the sports concentration program as this program is not a requirement for graduation, but rather a compliment to the Student’s regular education.

    Students in this program benefit from more time in physical education than other students. This is due to the fact that concentration students have reduced time in some of their subjects. In secondary 3, 4 and 5 students have 5 60-minute periods on a six-day cycle for the whole school year in their concentration program and 5 60-minute periods per six-day cycle for one trimester within a fitness program.

    Goal of the Sports Concentration Program

    The goal of the Football Concentration, Soccer Concentration and Hockey Concentration Program is to develop the student’s overall academic, athletic and social abilities. The program aims to assist the Student-Athlete to achieve academic excellence, optimum athletic performance and exceptional conduct as a citizen of the community. This is achieved by rigorously monitoring the student’s development related to effort, discipline, respect for self and others and commitment to success. Students in the program benefit from the expertise of highly accredited coaches. Students also benefit from all of the school’s regular services. The student’s citizenship qualities are supported by a comprehensive program that promotes good citizenship and recognizes students for achieving set standards.
