School Improvement Planning  

 

As part of our continued commitment to improving student achievement and well-being across all elementary schools, the June 26, 2026 Professional Activity Day will focus on strengthening instructional practice, curriculum implementation, and alignment with board priorities. 

All  
Ministry & Board Priority   ESS-Secondary and Elementary   In Person-Virtual  

ESS staff will engage in learning focused on supporting staff working with Indigenous students and families in the dual roles of helper and educator. The session helps participants understand how student engagement, attendance, behavior, anxiety, and disengagement can be influenced by relational, cultural, neurodevelopmental, family, school, and systemic factors. It encourages reflection on how staff members present themselves in complex educational environments, enhances practical skills for building trust with students and families, and explores how culture, identity, belonging, and systemic barriers impact student engagement and success. 

 

ECE participants will build a shared understanding of the new Kindergarten Curriculum, including key changes and updated structure. The session will explore how explicit instruction in literacy and mathematics connects with classroom practice, while reaffirming the ongoing importance of play. 

Superintendent C. Mills, Superintendent R. Roberts   
Ministry & Board Priority   All Staff  In Person   Staff from the Psychologist team, Speech and Language team, Behaviour Team, Social Work team, Open Minds and Create Your Future Advisor teams will receive additional information from their supervisors regarding expectations for the day.    Superintendent J. Bell, C. Mills. C. Howitt
