Tarolyn Aaserud, CLGM Chief Administrative Officer Cindy Heidecker Program Coordinator New elementary report card Cont’d from Pg 3 According to the information presented, brains are built in stages and early positive or negative experiences can change the structure and function of our brains. Coppock emphasized the importance of literacy enriched programs to help furnish children with the foundational skills needed for success later in school. Currently every Clearview school offering kindergarten has an early learning Start Right program with access to Alberta Health Services speech, language and occupational therapy resources. Across the division there are 162 children enrolled in Clearview kindergarten programs and 188 children enrolled in Clearview Start Right programs. Given that physical space is maxed out in Stettler and Coronation, they have begun to explore how to handle the increased load as programs become more popular. Coppock hopes to continue to positively impact the lives of preschool children by ensuring that “developmentally appropriate strategies and instructions are provided for all children in these programs”. New elementary report card Deputy Superintendent Brenda MacDonald explained the new Communication Student Learning (CSL) Elementary Report Card which was implemented by Clearview this past fall. This new outcomes-based report card reveals information about student learning attributes separately from academic achievement. CSL allows teachers to offer personalized comments and post artifacts of students’ work which will remain accessible throughout a student’s career, providing a unique collection of educational accomplishments. Parents will be able to clearly see what their children need to know at each grade level and view their progress over time, while administrators will be able to track student progress across the division and pinpoint where additional supports may be needed. It is anticipated that this new reporting system will improve communication from classroom to home concerning student progress and achievement. Initial staff response indicates that CLS is easy to use, cutting down on the time needed to complete and review report cards. There will be continued opportunities for feedback from both teachers and parents as the CLS report card moves towards full functionality.

E C A r e v i e w C o r o n a t i o n / S t e t t l e r , A b M a r c h 9 ' 1 7 5 High speed internet presentation made to council Cont’d from Pg 3 “I would encourage the village to ensure that the facts are posted and the residents have access to that information. “At this point, the village can make the residents aware that an inspector has not been appointed. Once that happens, then the residents will be advised of the process that will occur.” A Facebook page called Alix Petitions Information posted on Feb. 2 that a municipal investigator/ inspector was selected Jan. 27. “We look forward to starting the process of finally getting to the bottom of some of the councils (sic) actions,” the Facebook post stated. The Alix Petitions Information Facebook page stated that Municipal Affairs investigation is into “the past and present council and staff. If they find anything that might warrent (sic) further investigation, then the minister may order a forensic audit.” Last year a group of Alix residents presented a petition to Municipal Affairs asking the government to investigate. Coun. Rob Fehr said it was good to receive the clarification from Municipal Affairs. Council accepted the CAO’s verbal report of the email update from Municipal Affairs as information.
