2015–2016 PICKERING COLLEGE Report Card 2015–2016 PICKERING COLLEGE report card INTRODUCTION The 2015-2016 school year was about setting the stage for what is to come. Yet, it was no less remarkable than other years in terms of what we achieved. Academically, it saw the full rollout and implementation of the Global Leadership Program. Now, students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12 benefit from its academic rigour, balanced with values-based education. We took the time to review all of our curricular, co-curricular and boarding programs so that the necessary adjustments could be made to ensure they align seamlessly with the Global Leadership Program. For the first time, the results of our Global Leadership Program became tangible. Anyone who attended the Capstone Project, Expression of Self or My Key Idea presentations at the conclusion of the school year can attest to this. Our students are exemplifying the attributes of good leadership and are poised and ready to make a difference in the world. I could not be more proud. In terms of our Campus Master Plan, we took the time to rethink and reimagine the Centre for Creativity and Innovation; as we reviewed and retooled our plans, we developed a much more financially-prudent approach. We took great care in developing a Centre for Creativity and Innovation that will provide our students and teachers with 21st century learning space. This time to reflect has not deterred us from moving forward, if anything it has provided us with the drive to ensure we are making the right decisions for Pickering College and for our future generations of global leaders. The Board and the Administration continue to stand firmly behind us as we await site plan approval. We are now on the cusp of a very exciting time in our history, filled with possibility. Pickering College will, as it always has, remain strong and vital, as we boldly move towards the future.
