British Columbia has a redesigned curriculum which means that we are also redesigning how we assess and report on student progress. According to the guidelines from the Ministry of Education, effective communication between home and school is central to student success. We will continue to communicate about student progress on an ongoing basis throughout the year. You will begin to notice some changes in format and language. There will be many opportunities to become familiar with these shifts.
For example, School District approved Proficiency Scales will be used, along with other tools, to give specific, constructive feedback to students and help Teachers move learning forward.
Please do not hesitate to contact me or our Principal, Eva Young, with your questions.
