The Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) will be honouring Christ the King Catholic Secondary School on February 22, 2011, with the Dr. Bette M. Stephenson Recognition of Achievement.
This honour will be presented in recognition of the school community’s dedication to student achievement and use of provincial assessment results to improve student learning, as well as the school’s leadership, positive attitude and sincere effort to help every student succeed.
As the Principal of Christ the King, I am very fortunate to have such an exemplary array of shared leadership, teaching and support staff that not only believe in our vision but model it in every aspect within our Catholic Learning Community.
A special thank you is extended to our wonderful students and parents who without their dedication, prepartion and support, this special recognition of our collective efforts would not be possible.
Please refer to the link below for more details regarding our literacy, numeracy and data-driven instructional, assessment and evaluation strategies.

Thank you for reading. Looking forward to your comments.
Mr.DeSantis,
ReplyDeletefirstly, congratulations on receiving the Recognition of Achievement award;
secondly, I do think there's one important person not present in the picture: the classroom teacher without whom neither literacy/numeracy nor literacy/numeracy test scores would be possible.
Without the classroom teachers who plan, organize and deliver the EQAO tests administrators and politicians would have nothing to celebrate.
For once, I'd like to see special Board and Ministry recognition given to the classroom teacher.
For once.
Mr. C.DiDiodato (St. Thomas Aquinas Secondary, Oakville)
