Let The Planning Begin!

At this time of year we are in the midst of all of the excitement that year-end brings, but more importantly, we are already planning for the next school year.  Our School Planning Council (SPC) has been engaging in conversations about areas that, we as a school, might focus on as a goal.  

School Planning Councils were initiated several years ago as a means of ensuring meaningful consultation with parents in relation to the actions of the school.  Since then, Planning Councils have been a cause for concern from the BCTF, resulting in teachers withdrawing from the conversations.  This obviously complicates the process which is mandated through Ministerial Order and School District Policy.

The David Cameron SPC continues to work in the best interest of students and the school as a whole as it considers information from a variety of sources including Satisfaction Surveys, FSA, and personal judgments regarding areas for potential focus.  Setting and working towards goals is an important part of the continued growth of our school.  We are excited about what the next school year will bring us and the opportunities we have to improve the achievement results of our students.
