SCHOOL EDUCATION PLAN (2017-2018 – 2019-2020)

Monsignor Neville Anderson School

Alberta Education requires all schools to maintain an education plan that reflects and aligns with the district’s 3 Year Plan. These plans are cyclical and fluid and are to be considered “living documents”.

The Annual Education Results Reports (AERR) is the evaluation for all the desired and specific outcomes identified in the school plan. It is in the AERR that schools report their assessment of progress as it relates to the school’s past performance and achievement of targets. The AERR appears first followed by the 3 Year Plan to reflect the cyclical planning process. There should be a strong connection between the AERR and the School Education Plan.

The School Education Plans are to reflect the adjustment of strategies and targets for each year.

Target setting means establishing outcomes that arise from the analysis of current measures and performance at the school and district level and are expressed qualitatively.

Outcomes are measurable statements of what you seek to achieve. In broad terms, they answer the question, “What will this look like when we get to where we want to be?”

THE SCHOOL’S VISION/MISSION STATEMENT

The aim of Monsignor Neville Anderson School is to promote the development of the “whole

child”. By fostering their spiritual, intellectual, social, emotional and physical dimensions, students

are assisted towards developing a Christian personality and character. In partnership with home and

church, Monsignor Neville Anderson School strives to develop in students the necessary attitudes,

skills, knowledge and values that will enable them to function as Catholic citizens in our rapidly

changing society.

1. Catholic gospel values are evident, operative and celebrated. 2. The teaching and learning

environment is positive, safe and caring. 3. The diversity of all learners is accepted, facilitated and

celebrated. 4. Leadership is shared within a collaborative environment. 5. Risk‐taking and

innovation are valued and supported by current research to promote best practice. 6. Students are

facilitated and challenged to reach their individual academic potential. 7. Healthy active lifestyles

are promoted and practiced.

At Monsignor Neville Anderson, we believe that student success is secured when all team

members are working toward success for all students; parents are an integral member of the

learning team. Our focus continues to be on building partnership with stakeholders in order to

ensure that the students are able to access all that they may need to be successful in their learning.

We feel that our AERR result indicates improvement again this year due to our continued

commitment to this. For the 2017-18 school year our teachers committed to continue with greater

communication through Google Classroom, Google Sites, Remind App, use of agendas, phone

calls, emails and conferences. Administration also incorporated more consistent use of social

media –specifically Facebook and twitter, updated school website, email communication, School

Council meetings and PATHs think sheets to assist with communicating with our parent

community. Collaboration and partnership on goal setting continues to be completed through

various documents including progress reports, parent- teacher conferences, Learner Support Plans

and Learner profiles. Teachers are MNA are also great partners with the district team in that they

work collaboratively with IS consultants and supervisors.

“A” = Acceptable; “E” = Excellence – the percentages achieving the Acceptable Standard include the percentages achieving the Standard of Excellence. Alberta Education requires jurisdictions and schools to report results for Provincial Achievement Test data on the basis of the cohort group.

*This form of reporting accounts for all students enrolled at a grade level. For example, the number of students in the cohort is determined as the total of number of students who write, the number of students who are absent, and the number of students who are excused from writing by the Superintendent for valid reasons as determined by Alberta Education (because participation would be harmful to the student or the student could not respond to the test instrument). When the percentage of students meeting Standards is calculated, students who are absent or excused are considered to have not demonstrated the Acceptable Standard for a given achievement test as their achievement is not known.

Aggregated PAT results are based upon a weighted average of per cent meeting standards (Acceptable, Excellence). The weights are the number of students enrolled in each course. Courses included: English Language Arts (grades 6, 9, 9KAE), Français (grades 6 and 9), French Language Arts (grades 6 and 9), Mathematics (grades 6, 9, 9KAE), Science (grades 6, 9, 9KAE) and Social Studies (grades 6, 9, 9KAE)

Grade 9 Provincial Achievement Tests were substantially impacted by the flooding of June 2013 so caution should be used when interpreting trends over time for the province and district.

Comment on Results for School Outcome: A cohesive professional development plan is established.

As a staff we will look at last year’s school plan to decide how we should proceed with this year. After collaboration with Parents and Staff a plan is prepared with all of our data. After it is prepared we will look at it again and see what we need to add throughout the year. We know it is a living document that can be updated and changed. Our current results will guide and lead us to what we need to improve on and maintain the same.
