VSB's Mini School Programs provide enrichment opportunities for highly motivated students who are Vancouver residents, working consistently at a Proficient level and are looking for a challenge. 

Students must apply to each program separately as per each program's process. 

Each year, over 1,400 students apply for approximately 500 Grade 8 spaces in the Mini School Programs. 

There is no District-wide Assessment/Test for Grade 7 students as part of the Mini School Programs application process.
