We are developing district-wide understanding and capacity so that all our students are members of classrooms that are inclusive learning communities. We are becoming more able to grow the strengths and meet the needs of students in their classrooms with their peers. We will provide appropriate supports and interventions whether a student has a diagnosis connected to a special education category or not. We are creating learning environments that enable students to develop a sense of belonging and ensure they see themselves in the curriculum. We know the improvements we make for vulnerable students or students with different interests and talents will benefit all students.
Some examples of the work of our plan are:
- Fostering a growth mindset: all students can be successful
- Shifting from pull-out to push-in supports so learning happens with peers in the context of classroom learning
- Shifting from finding the right place for students to creating classroom communities for all students
- Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) school leads team
- Ease Everyday Anxiety Strategies for Educators (EASE) program K-12 and Mental Health Literacy (Gr 7-12) for the benefit of staff and students
- Training for staff and community in creating trauma-informed resilient classrooms: Circle of Courage
