Superintendent's Report - June 2023

Another school year is coming to completion - June is one of the most exciting months of the year for everyone in SD8.

In June, we see students showcase their efforts and accomplishments throughout the school year - in capstone projects, in school theatre productions, in school-wide projects to protect the oceans or mark the Seven Sacred Teachings or in outdoor sports during and after school, including in the annual wuqanqankimik run/walk/wheel for Reconciliation.

Weekly Update - 20May23

Good May Long Weekend out there, LVR Community.

Thank to Mr. Munby for inviting me in this past week to participate in the Anatomy & Physiology (Biology) 12 Gallery Walk of student-developed projects.  Each presenter got to teach fellow LVR students, adults, and Hume Elementary students through explanations, games, demonstrations, and assessments about various aspects of this course - and I got great refreshers on DNA, endoplasmic reticulum, enzymes, and types of tissues in the human body.
