SCHOOL PLANNING CYCLE
2011-2012

The School Planning Cycle is a yearly process that includes setting goals for the following year, collecting and analyzing data from October to March, and reviewing the progress and future directions in April and May. The School Plan is produced each May or June in consultation with students, staff, and parents. Feedback can be directed to Chris Atkinson at catkinson@vsb.bc.ca

A draft of the School Plan for the 2011/2012 school year is available here.
