Earth Day - April 22, 2008

Climate Survey – Quantitative Results
Please find attached  the quantitative results of the school Climate Survey (May 2007).  We hope that you find the information of interest to you.  The school administration is now reviewing the outcomes of the survey and will make a presentation to the Board of Directors at the October meeting of the Board of actions that will be incorporated into the planning and development of the current school year.  The information that is contained in this report will also be used in the discussions of the Planning Team that is responsible for the first stage of the strategic planning process.

Further analysis of the outcomes of the school Climate Survey (May 2007) will be undertaken and reports will be published to our community in a prudent period of time.

Many thanks to everybody who contributed to the school Climate Survey (May 2007).  Surveys of this nature really do help to make our school a better school and that is our most fervent wish.
