Iron Ridge Collective - November 2024
Thank you to everyone who joined the Iron Ridge Collective Google Meet on November 5, 2024! We had a fantastic session filled with updates from each Blackfalds school and an engaging guest presentation.
Key Highlights from the Meeting:
- Student Support and Wellbeing: Across all schools, there was a strong emphasis on fostering positive learning environments and providing support for students' overall wellbeing. Initiatives included breakfast programs, intervention groups, dedicated support rooms like "The Nest" at the Intermediate school, and partnerships with community organizations like FCSS.
- Community Engagement and Partnerships: The meeting highlighted the importance of collaboration between schools, families, and the wider community. The potential for a unified Black Falls School Council was discussed as a means to enhance community engagement and support school initiatives.
- Communication and Information Sharing: The meeting emphasized the importance of clear and consistent communication between schools and families. Principals stressed the various communication channels available to parents, including weekly emails, newsletters, social media, and the Parent Portal.
Stay Connected! We look forward to future meetings and encourage everyone to join us for our next session.
