It
is expected that all children will learn at least the essential knowledge,
concepts and skills needed so that they can be successful at the next
level next year. Further, it has been found that when school improvement
processes based upon the effective schools research are implemented,
the proportions of students that achieve academic excellence either
improves, or at the very least, remains the same.

School ~ A LEARNING PLACE WHERE
NO STUDENT WILL BE FORGOTTEN

never teach my pupils; I only attempt to provide the conditions
in which they can learn. - Albert Einstein'
At Rosedale School, no child is
forgotten. We understand that regardless of a childs
ability, he or she CAN learn.It is our mission to ensure that
students who are achieving below the Provincial Standard
(Level 3or "B"), will receive what he or she needs
in order to meet with success.
Why Family Literacy?
Often parents are not aware of
the strong influence they have on their children's attitudes
towards literacy and learning. (Taylor 1983. Purcell-Gates
1993.) In homes where parents have low literacy skills and
do not model learning as an important value, the literacy
and learning of their children can be negatively influenced.
In fact, illiteracy is often intergenerational. MORE
