Hi,
Happy May!
The next two months are going to go by so quickly since we have so
many learning activities involved and the weather will start to get
warmer. Since it is lighter longer into the evening now, it is more difficult
to get the kids to bed. Please do your best to ensure the kids get as
much rest as possible each night.
Staff are planning for the next couple of months and this usually means
extra trips out of the school. Be sure to ask your children what is going
on in their classrooms and look for notes from their teachers and/or the
school.
We continue to focus our efforts on responding to the needs of our
students. All teachers have been focusing on reading, writing and math
instruction and we are seeing a positive results. We could not do the
work without your help so continue to ask questions, share comments
and get involved in your child’s education because we do believe it is a
team effort.
Remember to read with or to your child each and every night.
Jaime & Amy

From the Board Table
Highlights from the April 17, 2018, meeting of the Board of Education:
Trustees received an update on Technology for Learning, one of the division’s core strategies. The strategy’s
goal is to engage students in a variety of learning environments and to support teachers in becoming
proficient in the use of technology to enhance learning. The division is working to pilot innovative,
technology-based learning with the assistance of Saskatoon Public Schools Foundation and the work of
SaskCode.
During discussion of the recent provincial budget, trustees emphasized their commitment to keeping resources
in the classroom to ensure student success. Total funding announced on budget day for Saskatoon Public
Schools was $237.2 million, which is below 2016-17 funding levels. Trustees will set the 2018-19 division
budget in June.
The board approved a tender for construction of an outdoor sensory playground at John Dolan School, which
serves intensive-support students who require a high level of care. The project has been made possible by
a funding commitment from the school's parent council. Parents from John Dolan expressed their
appreciation to trustees for the work of the school and the program opportunities provided for students.
Song and dance brought the boardroom alive as students from École Dundonald School provided trustees with
a song from their production of Beauty and the Beast. Teacher Brenda Irvine and students shared how
theatre contributes to arts literacy, engages students, encourages a sense of belonging, builds identity and
provides students with the opportunity to shine and take risks.
Reports and information presented at board meetings can be found at www.saskatoonpublicschools.ca. The next
meeting of the Board of Education is Tuesday, May 15, 2018, at 7 p.m. The public is welcome to attend.
