About MACC
Through a conceptually advanced curriculum, Multi Age Cluster Classes (MACC) provides academic enrichment and social-emotional support for grade 4-7 students. MACC students leave their catchment school for the school year to attend the classes. There are three MACC classes on the west side of Vancouver and one on the east side of Vancouver.
Students must have a Ministry of Education gifted designation within the special education umbrella to attend MACC, this means passing a psychoeducational assessment with an IQ higher than 130. There are about 600 students in the District with gifted designations, and a total of 80 spaces available in MACC with no waitlist to attend. For the 2021-2022 school year, 73 students applied and met the criteria to enroll in MACC.
