Rocky View School Division No. 41 ___________________________ Chair – Board of Trustees MINUTES OF THE BOARD MEETING #117-2017 MOTION BY TRUSTEE NORMA LANG: The Board of Trustees approves the minutes of the June 1, 2017, Regular Board meeting as circulated. CARRIED EXEMPLARY PRACTICE: EXCELLENCE IN TEACHER/EDWIN PARR/POST-SECONDARY ACHIEVEMENTS Recognition of Post-Secondary Achievement Centered on the principle that building capacity increases the collective efficacy of a group to improve student learning, Rocky View Schools believes that educators have a responsibility to be both teachers and learners. In order to equip today’s learners with the critical competencies needed to succeed in tomorrow’s changing global society, educators first must understand the world that they are preparing them for. Through ongoing learning, collaboration, and research, Rocky View Schools’ educators are acquiring the requisite skills that not only are influencing students’ thinking and learning, but are successfully helping bring about transformational change for a 21st C learning organization. The Board of Trustees would like to recognize the accomplishments of these staff members who have demonstrated their commitment to life-long learning. Not only do these individuals exemplify the jurisdiction’s vision that we are all learners, but they also demonstrate leadership in learning. SCHOOL STAFF Alison Turner, Teacher - C.W. Perry School Graduate Diploma in Design Thinking for Innovation - University of Calgary “Alison is truly a life-long learner, and an individual who takes great joy in learning. Possessing a well of seemingly endless energy, she is always looking for ways to extend and better herself in order to make the most of her time, both personally and professionally.” ~Jim Forrest, Principal Bonnie Kelly, Child Development Advisor - Chestermere Lake Middle School Bachelor of Social Work - University of Victoria “Bonnie joined CLMS staff four years ago as Child Development Advisor and in that time has built meaningful relationships within our community to support students and families. Bonnie shows compassion and kindness in her daily work and has been instrumental in supporting some of our most vulnerable students. She balances her job with the demands of being a single parent of four lovely and active boys. Bonnie loves running - or maybe the medals for the running - and hiking. We are very proud of Bonnie and her academic accomplishments.” ~Tammy Rahn, Principal Colleen Bushrod, Teacher - Westbrook School Masters in Leadership - University of Calgary “Colleen has been a teacher with Rocky View since 2002, teaching at Ralph McCall and Nose Creek before landing at Westbrook where she wears many hats: Grade 6 Humanities, Literacy Coach, Early Literacy and Learning Support. Colleen is a perfect model of a lifelong learner and is a master teacher who readily shares her love of learning and teaching. Her Interdisciplinary Master’s Degree ___________________ Chair/Treasurer Initials MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE ROCKY VIEW SCHOOL DIVISION NO. 41 REGULAR BOARD MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2017 HELD AT 2651 CHINIOOK WINDS DR.

His talents in the arts are obvious but he also is a technology buff, a ballroom dancer, an outdoors man and hunter, and a great athlete. Pursuing a graduate degree is consistent with his life-long learner philosophy. Congratulations, Dan!” ~Brad Walls, Principal Erin Tysowski, Teacher - Springbank Community High Master of Fine Arts - Emily Carr University of Art and Design, Vancouver “Erin Tysowski serves as our art teacher and co-academic lead for the multidisciplinary department (PE, Art, Drama, Languages, Music) at Springbank Community High School. Her insight into teaching and learning and her input and collaboration on our academic lead team is invaluable. Erin connects well with students and is able to draw out their inherent talents and further develop their artistic skills. Many of her students move on to prestigious art programs in post-secondary institutions throughout Canada. Erin brings dedication and passion to her work every day and our students and school community are appreciative of her efforts; we congratulate her on attaining her Master’s degree.” ~Jeff Chalmers, Principal Jennifer Friske, Teacher - Prairie Waters Elementary School Masters in Educational Studies - University of Alberta “Jen is both the Primary Years Programme Coordinator and Technology Coach at Prairie Waters. She has been instrumental in leading a shift and commitment to inquiry and deep reflection among Prairie Waters’ teachers.” ~Ryan Siemens, Principal Kaeli New, Teacher - Ralph McCall School Masters in Curriculum and Assessment - University of Lethbridge “Kaeli New is an exemplary teacher, an outstanding addition to the Ralph McCall staff this year. Her commitment to her own learning, as evidenced by her Master’s degree, is surpassed only by her commitment to her students. They are lucky to have her as a teacher; we are fortunate to have her as a colleague. Congratulations Kaeli!” ~Andrea Craigie, Principal Karen Girard, Career Advisor - Cochrane High School Certificate Level 1 - Expressive Arts Therapy Training - Prairie Institute of Expressive Arts Therapy (Calgary) “Karen is an outstanding staff member who truly cares about the students at Cochrane High School and goes above and beyond on a daily basis in whatever she does.” ~Ed Polhill, Principal Lindsey Bryden, Teacher - Currently on Leave Masters in Education of the Blind or Visually Impaired - Mount Saint Vincent University, Halifax “Lindsey has spent the last 10 years with Rocky View Schools as a dedicated classroom teacher, most recently at Ralph McCall School. As a teacher, Lindsey shows compassion and develops inspiring relationships with her students. She is thoughtful, reflective, and committed to lifelong learning and continued development as an educator, always willing to share ideas with colleagues and capitalize on opportunities to learn from others. Lindsey recently completed her Masters while being a full-time working mom to a young family. In the last year, she has moved outside the classroom and taken on the new role of Vision Consultant with RVS and SSIL. Rocky View students, parents, and team partners ___________________ Chair/Treasurer Initials MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE ROCKY VIEW SCHOOL DIVISION NO. 41 REGULAR BOARD MEETING OF JUNE 15, 2017 HELD AT 2651 CHINIOOK WINDS DR.

Congratulations, Lindsey!” ~Andrea Craigie, Former Principal Matt Chomistek, Teacher - Cochrane High School Masters in Educational Leadership - University of Calgary “Matt comes from a family of educators. He is passionate about the profession and truly cares about the students under his care. He is continually seeking opportunities to improve his programs and willing to put in the time and effort required to make these improvements.” ~Rob Kimura, Principal Michelle Gillis, Teacher - Currently on Leave Masters in Education of the Blind or Visually Impaired - Mount Saint Vincent University, Halifax “Michelle is a dedicated professional and lifelong learner who consistently demonstrates her commitment to her own learning and that of her students. Michelle has laboured tirelessly to obtain her Masters while working full time and raising a family. The relationships she has built with colleagues in the field of the blind and visually impaired are a wonderful asset. Currently, Michelle is on leave from RVS and is working with the CBE Vision Team to enhance her skills and put her new degree and knowledge into action. Congratulations Michelle on this wonderful achievement!” ~Andrea Craigie, Former Principal Sarah Caldwell, Teacher - Elizabeth Barrett School Master of Education - University of Calgary “Sarah Caldwell is passionate about children and making a difference in their lives. She is driven to learn more to support our students and to support her colleagues in their professional learning journeys. It has been an honour to work with such an outstanding individual.”

Its purpose was to gather data, input, and suggestions to guide curriculum developers in the development of the new program. A needs assessment questionnaire was the primary tool for gathering qualitative and quantitative data from educational partners and stakeholders. During the needs assessment process, respondents submitted 1526 questionnaires, including feedback from Aboriginal and Francophone respondents. This report enumerates the results, summarizing the areas of concern surrounding the existing high school social studies program, as identified by questionnaire respondents and consultation participants. The report cites as areas of concern: program content; program rationale; curriculum overlap; quantity of curricular content; and skills and processes. It also provides general advice and input provided by questionnaire respondents, and consultation participants, regarding breadth of coverage, depth of coverage, program focus, program content, skill development, two course sequences, learning and teaching resources, and stakeholder participation.

  • Policy 7 Board Operations Page 1 of 9 POLICY 7 Approved: 2020 12 10 BOARD OPERATIONS
    POLICY 7 Approved: 2020 12 10 BOARD OPERATIONS BACKGROUND The Board’s ability to discharge its obligations in an efficient and effective manner is dependent upon the development and implementation of a sound organization design. In order to discharge its responsibilities to the electorate of the Division, the Board shall hold meetings as often as necessary. A quorum, which is a simple majority of the number of trustees, must be present for every duly constituted meeting. The Board has adopted policies so the business of the Board can be conducted in an orderly and efficient manner. The Board’s fundamental obligation is to preserve and enhance the public trust in education, generally, and in the affairs of its operations in particular. Consistent with its objective to encourage the general public to contribute to the educational process, Board meetings will be open to the public. Towards this end, the Board believes its affairs must be conducted in public to the greatest extent possible. There are times when public interest is best served by private discussion of specific issues in "in- camera" sessions. The Board believes it is necessary to protect individual privacy and the Board's own position in negotiating either collective agreements or contracts and therefore expects to go in-camera for issues dealing with individual students, individual employees, land, labour, litigation or negotiation. Having members of the public make presentations at Board meetings can enhance public interest. Public forums dealing with specific educational topics and held in various communities within the Division can enhance communications and the effectiveness of the Board.

    Town of Chestermere Social Plan 2012-2014 MAYOR’S MESSAGE While buildings, roads and parks define where a community is on a map, it’s the people that live and interact in that community that make it a home. This Social Plan provides a path for Council to follow to ensure that Chestermere remains the home we all want it to be. Why is the Social Plan important? It’s a plan to ensure our quality of life is honoured as we grow and develop over the next few years. It’s a plan that creates a social vision for the future of Chestermere’s residents: our future, together. Without this strategic document providing guidance to both Council and staff on the social expectations of our residents, we risk moving forward blindly. Hours and hours and hours of work have gone into creating this document, interviewing residents, blending existing plans and identifying priorities. This is truly a document our entire community should be proud because it was born of our thoughts, hopes and dreams for Chestermere. It reflects what we value in our society and who we are as Chestermerians. Thank you for taking the time to read it and please feel free to provide Council or myself with feedback at any time.
