Quotes from Parent Advocates

We believe the school has provided our son with a challenging academic environment, while still providing rich experiences in arts, sports, and cultural activities. The school’s emphasis on positive citizenship and responsibility for one’s own behavior has exceeded our expectation and our son has grown in his awareness of his contributions to the community.”

“Our school has a dedicated staff that is interested in nurturing students and providing support and guidance. The school also has a curriculum that balances academics, athletics, and arts while building character and respect for one another.”

 

 

 


How do we define success for Elbow Valley students?

Our students will have achieved success when they exhibit a desire to learn and are engaged in the process of acquiring skills and knowledge. They will be self-motivated and reflective of their progress, willing to take risks, and will challenge themselves in reaching their potential. They will be active participants, sharing their learning and collaborating with peers. Our students will exhibit academic vigor, critical thinking, problem solving skills, caring for others and the environment, and increasing self-responsibility as life long character traits.

What makes our school good and how do we know?

Our school is great and we know from the feedback that we receive from School Council, our parent community, our students, and our assessment results.

  1. School Council - We have an active school council that is supportive of our initiatives, policies, and procedures.
  2. Parent Community - In a recent school satisfaction survey, our parents responded very positively about a broad range of school topics.
  3. Students - Our students engage in a variety of citizenship activities throughout the year. There are numerous acts of kindness, respect, compassion, and academic vigour exhibited by our students.
  4. Assessment results - Our students excel in both the language arts and mathematics assessments as evidenced by the Grade Three Provincial Achievement results. Students are becoming more reflective of their work and are increasingly able to self-assess their progress. Results from Alberta Education Satisfaction Survey are in the “Excellence” range in most categories.
