The release of any information requested is subject to exceptions noted in FIPPA. The school district will not release personal information with a request that is not the personal information of the person requesting it.

Student Records

Transcripts

A transcript is an official document that shows your secondary school marks and credits in a British Columbia Graduation Program. It is a listing of a student's academic record relating to a BC Graduation Program, which includes courses completed successfully, grades earned, honours received, and graduation status.

Your transcript, not your Graduation Certificate (diploma), is the legal document proving graduation.

Official Transcripts, Graduation Certificates and GED records can be obtained from the Ministry of Education in Victoria B.C. online:

Any questions or concerns about ordering official documents from the Ministry of Education can be emailed to studenttranscripts@gov.bc.ca.
Please contact your last school of record or the school district office,  if you last attended school in 1985 or earlier.
If you require College or University records, you must contact those institutions to obtain those records.

Permanent Student Record (PSR) Card
A Permanent Student Record (PSR) Card is a listing of a student's entire academic record for grades K-12, which includes courses taken, achievement records (excluding provincial exams), absences, schools attended and graduation status.

You may wish to request your PSR for the following reasons:
  • ​To document marks from courses that do not appear on your transcript (most transcripts only show results from grades 11 and 12)
  • To confirm your attendance at a school
  • To help confirm the language of instruction 
  • To document any other information about your program of instruction
Current Students
Students can obtain a PSR card from the school that they are presently enrolled in or last attended.​
