Most schools offer regular programming, but no two schools are quite the same. Regular programming is based on curriculum determined by Alberta Education, but a school’s focus, optional courses and activities will vary depending on how it is organized to meet student needs.  Besides the regular core subjects (mathematics, science, language arts, social studies, and physical education), Rosslyn offers the following complementary subjects ("options"):

• Instrumental Music ("Band")
• Guitar Techniques
• Computer Studies
• French
• Mandarin
• CTF: Sports Performance / Healthy Living
• Food Studies
• Outdoor/Environmental Education
• Construction
• Art
• Drama
• CTF: Innovation and Design
• Robotics
