Chinook’s Edge achieving levels of excellence in Accountability

“Our school teams are working hard to ensure students have the curricular background and foundational knowledge needed to achieve success,” said Sacher. “But they are also focusing on our other strategic divisional priorities of literacy, social emotional framework development and career transitions. This core focus of our work, both at the school and division level, is paying dividends in our Accountability Pillar results.”

Chinook’s Edge officials say parents are also highly involved in the district and continue to respond at a level of excellence to the question ’Has your school improved in the last three years?’

“Our drop-out rate was already low and we’ve reduced it significantly because of the collective responsibility occurring on every school team that ensures a network of support for every student,” Sacher continued. “That said, we continue to focus on our high school completion rate. Although we have a high standing as a division with an above provincial average of 79.2 per cent of our students graduating, we feel we can still do better.”

“The Board is very pleased with the excellent work being accomplished in our schools,” added Board Chair Colleen Butler. “The clear, strategic goals that we’ve been sticking to, along with the commitment of staff, students and parents, is leading to great success for our students.”
