Staff has been busy this year working on our school development plan.
In September Staff looked over the past year and set goals that we would like to focus on for 2010-11 school year.
During this year we plan to continue our focus on Writing, Discipline and have added Reading Comprehension as a third goal.
Staff have established collaborative teams within the school that will focus on one or more of these goals throughout the school year.
Staff attended a workshop put on by Wayne Hulley – PLC Teams. See link below for more info.
