We as a staff are always looking to improve our practice and community. There are three initiatives we will be focused on throughout the year.
|
New Ministry of Education Assessment
The numeracy assessment for senior students begins this year. Our staff has taken the initiative to review the assessments with students during the study block and strongly encourage taking the assessments early.
Our students are also taking part in the new literacy assessment. They are fortunate to have the opportunity to take part in a field test. This will allow students to experience the assessment without effecting their course marks. |

Equity and Educational Resources
At FSJSS we are working with our Indigenous education committees, and the school board staff on an equity scan. The goal is to provide staff with learning resources from Indigenous communities.
Trauma Informed Practice
Over the last few years, our staff has had the opportunity to learn best practices when working with students who have been affected by trauma. This year we are putting this learning into practice in all our work with students.
