Early Learning Programs. School District 79 has been very committed to Early Learning for many years. The District Review Team (2007) identified Early Learning Programs as a significant strength. We have continued to fine-tune and expand these programs over the last two years. The District has had an Early Learning Liaison Teacher in place for five years. The position includes time to work with Early Primary teachers and a variety of community groups to support early learning initiatives and school readiness as well as to promote the use of the Early Learning Framework and the Early Learning Continuum. The focus continues to include supporting a variety of pre-school literacy programs such as PALS, Play and Learn, Fun Family Literacy Nights, Books for Babes, Story and Play Time, Mother Goose. A Literacy Now Cowichan Task Group, made up of School District 79 and community stakeholders, was formed in May 2007 to develop a Community Literacy Plan using the Provincial Literacy Now Community Planning Process. The group worked diligently throughout the 2007-2008 school year to identify goals, objectives and strategies to address literacy needs in the Cowichan region. The first Community Literacy Plan was finalized in June 2008. During 2008-09, participants of Literacy Now Xxxxxxxx worked together to implement the goals of the Community Literacy Plan. School District 79 has been well represented in this collaborative process. The School District 79 Literacy Plan and the Community Literacy plan have now been amalgamated to form the new Cowichan Literacy Plan 2009. There is a strong connection between the Cowichan Literacy Plan and the revised District Achievement Contract. Both speak to the on-going commitment to improve literacy across the Cowichan School District for people of all ages. An important part of building the Cowichan Literacy Plan has been developing and extending the networking, collaboration and partnerships within the broader community. The recommendations of the District Review in 2007 continue to be a focus of our efforts to improve student achievement. Recent highlights include: • A renewed emphasis to improve success for Aboriginal students • The creation of “families of schools” to enhance student achievement and transition rates particularly for our vulnerable students. • Integrating Assessment for Learning into our focus on instructional strategies. • Increasing the number of StrongStart Centres. • Increasing public consultation with the community. • A focused effo...
