Assessment Days
Skaters have the opportunity to take Skate Canada Assessment through a nationally standardized assessment system. Assessments for Star 1-5 happen during the regular session. Assessment for Star 6 and up take place on assigned Assessment Days. If you have any questions about Assessments, please talk to your coach.
