The school year began with the official Chair of opening of Princess Anne Public School and Walden Public School, another chapter in the revitalization of Rainbow Schools.

Expansion renovations were completed at Algonquin Road Public School and R.L. Beattie Public School, as the Board continued to give students access to the best programming possible in quality school facilities. The Board also approved and began the construction of a new green school on the site of MacLeod Public School, another tangible example of our commitment to sustainability. September 2011 marked the launch of Barrydowne College, a re-engagement school in partnership with and located within Cambrian College. Barrydowne College supports students ages 17 to 20 who want to return to school. A milestone was celebrated on June 20, 2012 when the first group of students proudly received their Ontario Secondary School Diplomas. At the elementary level, the Board continued to phase in the Early Learning Program for four and five-year-olds. Full day every day Junior and Senior Kindergarten will be offered until the program is fully implemented throughout our system. At the secondary level, students have many ways to achieve their secondary school diploma, including a growing field of Specialist High Skills Majors. The many policies, programs and projects adopted by the Board focused on the priorities in Strategic Directions, namely, to ensure success for all, to provide efficient resource management and to promote succession planning. The Board reaffirmed its commitment to all learners in all areas – early learning, special education, First Nation, Métis and Inuit Education, French as a Second Language, character development, equity and inclusive education, and adult education. The Board also continued to nurture parental involvement and promote community use of schools. In closing, I would like to commend staff for their dedication, thank parents/ guardians and community partners for their support and congratulate students for their efforts. We are leaders in learning, inspiring success for all students by Tyler Campbell reaching minds and touching hearts. Chair Rainbow District School Board Doreen Dewar Chair, Rainbow District School Board 1 This Annual Report provides an overview of key activities Message undertaken by Rainbow District School Board in the 2011-2012 school year. Strategic Directions continued to guide our efforts with an ongoing focus on higher levels of student from the achievement, reduced gaps in student achievement and increased public confidence in publicly funded education.

Director of Under the leadership of elected officials, staff worked diligently to implement strategies to achieve each priority. Ensure success for all focused on Education literacy and numeracy, pathways, and community, culture and caring. Ensure efficient resource management and promote succession planning provided the foundation for student success. The Board Improvement Plan, which is updated annually, ensures that we remain relevant and results-oriented. With the support of the Province of Ontario, trustees, staff, parents/guardians and the community, Rainbow District School Board continued to deliver excellence in education from the early years to secondary school graduation. The achievements in this Annual Report offer a snapshot of a school year filled with progress. They also attest to the ever-growing circle of support fostering student success at school, at home and in the community. Students are becoming confident, well-rounded, critical thinkers. Students continued to shine at local, provincial, national and international levels, bringing pride and praise to Rainbow Schools. Measures implemented to improve learning outcomes and encourage young people to go back to school, such as Barrydowne College, had a positive impact. Our mental health strategy, including the launch of a new SPARK fitness program, began to take shape. We continued to implement initiatives to maintain safe schools and build welcoming and inclusive learning and teaching environments. This included the signing of a Community Threat Assessment Protocol, ongoing character development, equity training for staff, and presentations for students. Sustainability remained an important focus in our schools and at the Board level. We are fostering a culture of conservation, implementing green technology, and encouraging eco-friendly practices. Students are embracing sustainability, becoming global citizens who care about the world in which they live. As always, we thank our partners in education for working with us to nurture and mentor those who will follow in our footsteps. Students are not only learning essential skills, they are gaining character traits that will enable them to become capable and contributing members of society. We bring learning to life, enabling students to fulfill their aspirations.
