For the past three and one half

years I have been honored tobe the Superintendent of CSS.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my timehere and I have been so impressed

by the commitment and support thatparents provide to ensure the schoolsongoing success.

However, after 45 years of involve-ment in public education I have decid-ed that it is time for a change. There-

fore, January 30th will be my last dayas Superintendent. I think a changewill be beneficial to me personally as

well as the school.

I am pleased to inform you that theBoard of Directors has appointed Dr.Garry McKinnon to be your new Su-

perintendent. Garry holds Ed.D. fromBrigham Young University as well as aMasters Degree from the University of

Alberta.

Dr. McKinnon brings a wealth of expe-rience to the Calgary Science School.

He was the Superintendent of Schools

in the Golden Hills School Divisfrom 1994 to 2003. Since thenhas worked extensively at the U

versity of Calgary teaching a varof courses on involving leadersdevelopment and inquiry balearning.

Garry brings to CSS a real passfor leadership development, inqry based learning and promot

the potential for partnerships wother organizations including uversities. He is undoubtedly one

the best known and respected e

cators in this province.

Please join me in welcoming Ga

to CSS.

Thanks to all of you for your s

port and dedication to this schoWorking at CSS has been a wondful way to end my career in pueducation.

I

wanted to thank Gordon Welch on behalf of the

Board for a wonderful three years of involvementwith the CSS community. The Superintendent role

is really like that of the CEO of a corporation. Theyoversee school operations on a daily basis by acting

as the link between our Board and the administra-tive team at the Calgary Science School. In addi-tion, the Superintendent is our pipeline to Alberta

Education and the Minister of Education. You canimagine that this position is really a bit of a balanc-ing act with many different stakeholders looking forinformation and satisfaction, often at the same time.

Gordons charming personality and contacts withinAlberta Education have helped us tremendously onall of these fronts. It has been an honour and privi-lege to have worked with an educator of Gordons

caliber and dedication. He unwaveringly put the stu-dents first and has done a wonderful job of helpingset the Board visions into daily practice at the school.

I for one am envious of Gordons grandchildren who

will now be the beneficiary of a wonderful full timegrandpa! Good luck Gordon in all of your future

endeavors and leave knowing that you have reallymade a difference in the lives of all those associated

with the Calgary Science School.

At the same time, the Board feels tremendously

privileged to have attracted Dr. Garry McKinnon asour new Superintendent. We are looking forward toforging a long and fruitful relationshi p with Dr. McK-innon. His background and passions will go a long

way to further inspiring our educators along roadsinto inquiry based learning in addition to buildingupon our strengths in outdoor education and tech-nology.

You may have recently seen newspaper arti-cles on Provincial Achievement Tests (PATs) orchanges to the Grade 12 Diploma Exams. Both

PATs and Diploma Exams contribute to the Account-ability Pillar, a tool used by Alberta Education toevaluate how well the education system is meetingthe expectations of parents and the public. All par-

ents want to know that their children are receivinga quality education. Grades are important but thereis more to it than that. A quality education helps allchildren make the most of their talents and abilities.

The Accountability Pillar uses a set of 16 indicatorsconsisting of surveys of students, parents and teach-

ers on various aspects of quality; student outcomes

such as dropout and high school completion rates;and provincial assessments of student learning.

From January to the end of February, Alberta Edu-cation will be conducting the annual Accountabil-ity Pillar Survey. In January, parents of students ingrades 4-12 will receive a survey from Alberta Edu-

cation. In February, students in grades 4-12 and allteachers will be completing their surveys online atschool.

Accountability Pillar Surveys

All surveys are anonymous and ask questions aboutexperiences with this school. In addition to Englishand French, the parent survey is available in Manda-

rin, Cantonese, Punjabi, Arabic, Blackfoot, Cree, Ko-rean, Spanish and Tagalog.

As an annual check-up on the education system, the

Accountability Pillar provides an opportunity for Al-berta Education and school authorities to ensure thatwere equipping students for success. Your par ticipa-tion in the survey helps, so we encourage you to re-

turn your survey promptly.

Survey results will be available to school authoritiesin May 2010, and will be reported publicly by school

authorities as part of their 3-Year Education Plans andAnnual Education Results Reports.

The Volunteer Development Committee has been very busy this month and we are thrilled with the re-sponse from parents. We are hoping to get a webpage for volunteers ready in the coming months so par-ents can check regularly to see what volunteer opportunities are available.

We are currently in need of a volunteer to help with the science lab. This job would involve cleaning out thebeakers/test tubes and organizing the chemicals. They also have a terrarium that needs to have the glassrepaired and are looking for anyone who might have a contact in the glass repair business that could give

us a deal on having it repaired.

We also have a need in the drama department. Ms. Peebles is looking for someone who can author a DVD

that would showcase past performances. Once created, the DVD could be available in the library for parentsto sign out.

If you are able to help out please email us at [email protected].

A Message from your Fine Arts Team The Fine Arts teaching team is very excited to beimplementing digital portfolio assessment. With

the introduction of portfolios, we have moved awayfrom traditional reporting in the form of reportcards. As this is the pilot year of this initiative, the

structure, technique and organization is still in thedevelopmental stage and your patience is appreci-ated. Assessment can be formative, on-going, orsummative, at the end of each reporting period. As

some classes are by semester, and others are by tri-mester, the summative assessment dates will vary.Communication is an essential component of digi-tal portfolios, in order to provide feedback through-

out the creative learning process. Many forms offeedback will be used in the evaluative process toencourage students to enhance and develop their

learning in the fine arts.

As a parent your role in this process is to reviewand reflect with your child on the contents of their

portfolio. This includes writing comments, initiat-ing in-depth conversation and providing feedbackin the students portfolio. Your child will be knowl-edgeable in the different methods of sharing and

posting your feedback, including, but not limitedto: podcasts, blog, movies, audio recordings, andwritten reflections. For further clarification on spe-

cific project expectations, please regularly checkfor updates on class websites or your childs digital

portfolio. You may now access your childs portfoliousing your own login.

Students will be part of this process through self-re-flection and peer assessment. They will be held ac-

countable for all comments and reflections they poston their own and peer portfolios. Student portfolioswill record all comments and posts from any user,therefore all feedback should be well thought out

and in an appropriate and respectful manner. Cri-tiques are essential for growth, as constructive criti-cism is encouraged in order to provide students withhelpful information on how to improve. Periodic as-

sessment of the digital portfolio will now be done us-ing the information listed below.

Portfolios are currently password protected and only

accessible to CSS users. We have now added an up-dated feature that allows your child to decide whosees their portfolio work. This is for security pur-

poses to ensure we are abiding by FOIP standards.Should you have any concerns about any commentsposted on your childs portfolio, please contact theirteacher. We look forward to working with you and

your child to develop an interactive and holi stic digi-tal portfolio.

The Fine Arts Team

A portfolio is a systematic collection of student work that outlines both specific achievements, accomplish-

ments, and reflection of their own progress over a period of time. It includes instructional goals and specificexamples of students work wi thin the context of guidelines provided by the teacher. With the help of tech-nology students can store audio recordings, video, photographs, and samples of written work. This is donewith the use of computers, portable digital records, digital camcorders, and digital cameras.

Portfolios provide a more individualized approach to assessment as students can be evaluated both asindividuals based on individual growth, and within the context of curricular goals. Reflections on growth

encourage students to consider their own learning process and view assessment as a part of learning, ratherthan an arbitrary mark given by the teacher. A well-designed portfolio can easily demonstrate learning out-comes that cant be represented by a simple mark on a report card or comment form the teacher. Reportcards are good periodic symbolic representations and brief summaries of students learning but digital port-

folios are an on-going representation of students work that can be visited all the time.

An important part of the portfolio process is self-reflection. Peer, parental and teacher evaluation can also

be included as part of the portfolio process. This approach helps students take ownership of their own learn-ing and to value the learning process. It also encourages students to consider the reactions of others to theirwork.The above article is written by Kelly Demoline, a music educator and president of Kelly s Music & Computers.

It is regarding the implication and reasons for use of digital portfolio assessment in the classroom entitledUsing Portfolio Assessment in Music Education.

AISI Cycle Four Update[T]he key question is, What information provides the most accurate description of students learning at this tim

Guskey, 1996, 21). Exploring the implications of Guskeys key question is what guided our professional developm

uring our last two professional days. Teachers have been considering the vital question of what constitutes evidenc

tudent learning and, perhaps even more importantly, how we communicate evidence of that learning to our stud

nd their parents. This consideration ties in well with AISI Cycle Four Goal #3 that has teachers developing, collecting

nalyzing exemplars of student work.

erhaps the most pressing question that we considered is what types of information provide the most accurate desion of student learning? When we discussed this question, we also discussed what a students role is in communica

what s/he is learning, what place a zero has when communicating student achievement, and what we should do whe

tudent fails to complete an assessment task. In other words, we are trying to ensure that students and parents alw

now what their grades or marks mean in terms of reflecting what it is that students have learned.

This beginning exploration led to some fruitful conversation about our assessment practices and how best we can a n

Transportation NewsUpdate on Late Bus Message System

1. Confirm your subscription. Please log into your fam-ily account and make sure you are signed up to receivemessages if want them. After you log in, choose Bus

Subscriptions from the Family Zone box on the right.Enter any missing information and correct any inaccu-rate information. If your correct information is thereand you are not receiving messages, please let us knowby email, [email protected].

2. Understand the system. This year, Southland is re-sponsible to post messages to the CSS website, trigger-ing texts and emails to those who have subscribed aswell as displaying the message on the home page of theCSS site. This replaces the system we used last year thatrelied on students to post the messages. The studentsystem had variable results and the limitations of the

Southland system are emerging:

The drivers need to let dispatch know that they arerunning late. Cherilyn has asked Brent Storey, R9driver and our bus captain, to remind the driversthat we expect that.

On days when city wide traffic is slow, the driversmay have difficulty getting through to dispatch a ndso there will be no message.

Once dispatch gets the message they pass it on tobe posted. On busy days the message may not beposted in a timely manner.

Southland does not usually post anything untilthe bus is 15 min late. This is because when de-lays are less than 12 minutes the bus may get backon schedule and people who come at the later timewill have missed the bus.

Late buses in the afternoon are sometimes a prob-lem as our Southland rep has gone home for theday. We are working on this.

3. Apply Common Sense. If there is no reason to expectany delay, please call Southland, 403 287 1335, whenyour bus is 10 or 15 minutes late and you have no mes-sage. Either the bus will be along shortly or Southland

needs to post a delay message. When traffic every-where is just crawling along, expect that your bus willbe late and Southland will be busy. If the bus is 20 min-utes late and there is no message, phone Southland andenquire where the bus is on the route. You will needto know your route and stop number. Understand thattheir phone and radio systems may be overwhelmed.Everyone should have a back-up plan to cover any timethe bus does not come on schedule.

When you miss the bus

If you miss the bus you can take your child to anothstop. Please understand that you should get to theternate stop in time to have your child waiting in t

loading zone before the bus arrives. Go over your rosheet or look at the route maps on the bussing pagavailable by link on the CSS home page. Choose anternate stop that you can get to before the bus arrivParents are never to block the bus or try to delay tdriver in order for their child to board.

Looking Ahead to 2010/2011 School Yea

Both the Transportation Committee and the CSS Boahave begun planning for next year as well as lookingthe future. Your voice is important and we will be seing input from the parents. The system is a service CSS families and your views are needed to decide ho

it is delivered. At this point, no decisions have bemade as to how your opinions will be collected. Tcommittee will send an email in February to update yon the plans for next year. Please watch for this.

Transportation Comittee

The Girls Leadership Init iative began over a year ago when

a few teachers put their heads together with an idea. Lat-er, student representatives from each class came together

to talk about what the girls at CSS experience and what

types of support they needed and interests they shared.

n early December, two young women from the Cyber

Mentoring program came to speak to the girls about the

mentoring program and their work. Our leadership group

was impressed to find out that one of these women de-

signed and tested video games like Need for Speed while

the other was working towards acceptance into the as-

tronaut program. The Cyber Mentoring program matches

girls aged 11 to 18 with women in unique and exciting

careers in order to answer questions, and provide support

and encouragement. http://www.cybermentor.ca/Home.

aspx

At the December potluck, Jenna and Katelyn presented

the ideas of Jennifer De Groot from her book Peace Is

about the challenges that women face around the world,

ust meeting their basic needs.

A recent survey identified interests and activities that the

Leadership girls wanted to bring to the rest of the girls

n the school. Results will be compiled and activities or-ganized to involve all interested girls at CSS. Thanks to

everyone who helped get this important Initiative off the

ground!

Why do some cities during certain periods of time gtremendously prosperous and become centers for anplosion of scientific and artistic activi ty? Over the coof the last semester, we in Ms. Savoie and Mr. Sc

grade eight humanities classes have been exploringactly this question. Through our research of city-stsuch as Florence during the Italian Renaissance, weseeking to find the qualities Calgary needs to becomRenaissance city.

On January 19th, the Calgary Alderman for LakevBrian Pincott visited CSS and spoke to the grade estudents about Calgarys potential as a Renaissance Through his discussion with our classes, along withquestions we posed, we discovered that there are great obstacles that may stand in the way of Calgarycoming a Renaissance city. The first of these is the

many of us have of failure. As he explained, whenlook back on the Renaissance, we only see the inntions that were successful such as the printing presfirearms. However, we dont see the 90% of innovatthat occurred that were failures. If we in Calgary wisfoster an environment where innovations flourishneed to not only except failure, but also embrace it.will then provide a climate where risk taking and creity can thrive. According to Brian another problem Calgary faces is that we are a city of urban sprawl wour home, work, and leisure life are spread out all the city. As he relates, its a city of boxes. We go frombox homes, into our box cars, we then drive to a bi

box where we work all day, in our cubicle, which is a box. The problem with this is that the Renaissanceabout interactions, connectivity and the spread of ideas. His presentation really opened our eyes to sof the challenges we face if we wish to live in a Rensance city.

Grade 5 Winter Camps

The Grade 5s were very fortunate to have had the oppor-tunity to go snowshoeing up at Camp Sweet earlier thismonth. The timing of the trip was perfect as it took advan-tage of the great snow conditions prior to the warm spellwe have recently enjoyed. 5.1 and 5.2 went first and had to

deal with colder temperatures, but enjoyed the trip none-theless and came away with some great memories. 5.3 and5.4 enjoyed a seasonably warm day with plenty of sunshine,although a few students still managed to get snow in theirboots and have cold toes. Both groups were very lucky tohave had the pleasure of singing camp songs around the firewith Mr. Sweet, who as always was there with his guitar. Thefire in the teepee helped warm everyone, as a few rounds ofhot chocolate were passed around by the wonderful parentvolunteers. Snowshoeing was the real purpose of the tripand so after lunch, both groups were guided on a fun walkaround the property, disappearing into the forest for a quickgame of camouflage and generally having a really fun day inthe snow! This was another great day at CSS and hopefullyprovided students with some wonderful memories associ-ated with a unique winter trip to Camp Sweet! A big thankyou goes out to Ms. O who put this trip together, to the par-ent volunteers who came along and to Mr. Sweet for makingCamp Sweet such a Sweet experience for the students.

Peace Festival

The peace festival has always been an important part of CSS tradition. Tyear the volunteerism elective contributed a lot of effort to help put this evtogether. The theme for this years peace festival was Community Hear tbeIt consisted of a series of stations that brought forward our school commnity. The volunteerism elective ran four stations spreading awareness of global community. These stations included Music Around The World, Pny Drive, Jeopardy and Friendship Key Chains. Music Around The Woplayed songs from different cultures and encouraged people to guess wcountries the songs were from. This helped students to develop a better derstanding of different cultures. At the Penny Drive station students wo

roll pennies that were collected prior to the peace festival to buy suppliesa small school in Africa called Kings Glory School. This initiative raised clto $1,500. The Jeopardy station included many different questions abglobal. The Friendship Key Chains station allowed each student to cretwo key chains; one for themselves and the other, which will be sent a sdent at Kings Glory School. Through all of these activities the volunteerelective was able to raise awareness and connect our school communityothers locally and around the world.

Phys Ed Update

The Grade 4 Field trip at The TRICO Leisure

Centre took place before the Christmas

Break. The activities included many fit-

ness activities, swimming and broomball.

Thank you to all parent volunteers.

Last summer, Ms. Savoie and Ms. Coulliard visited Africa spent time helping children and families. One of their st

was at The Kings Glory School in Uganda. They had a chato interact with the students and share different teachtechniques with the teachers.

When school begun in August, there was a new grade 8 9 elective called Volunteerism. In this elective, studentsgiven a chance to pursue and carry out their enjoyment

volunteering. We went on field trips to the Food Bank, From The Cold, and the Glamorgan Mental Health Center, organized fundraisers. Later, Ms. Savoie shared some pho

with us of the people she met i n Africa. We then had a chato connect with them, as they became our pen pals.

Our pen pals name is Ssamanya Mwawebe (also knows a

tle Obama because he is so smart). We sent him a letter wdetailed information of our lives and the way citizens livCalgary. We wanted to know what it was like in Uganda how our lifestyles differed from his. After many weeks, we

ceived a letter back from him. He described a bit about landscape, his appearance, and his family. We were bloaway with how similar, yet different our lives are. Similar in

way that he is very family oriented and enjoys school yet ferent because of the many obstacles that he faces everyd

The volunteerism elective has exposed us to many new p

ple and ways of life. We have learned so much in regardhow different people live and ways to get involved beythe school. We look forward to continuing our relationwith our new friend from Uganda.
