  • Olympic and Paralymic Medalist Recognition
    Executive Summary The City of Greater Sudbury (City) has a long and rich tradition of producing athletes who have performed at the highest stage of sport. Recently, athletes hailing from Greater Sudbury won medals at the 2018 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games held in PyeongChang, South Korea. Council has directed staff to recognize Olympic and Paralympic athletes by naming and identifying meaningful training facilities within City amenities. This report recommends recognition of four individuals who have won Olympic or Paralympic medals in the past decade and provides a framework to determine recognition of other Olympic and Paralympic participants moving forward.

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.
