Interventions

The Interventions Committee focused on making systemic changes to the school in order to help those students who struggle most with literacy. 

Following a study of Adding English and visits to the Louis Riel school division, we decided to adopt a Welcome Centre approach for new Canadian students.  We applied and were accepted to pilot Manitoba Education's Reading Is Thinking course and are now offering RIT as an option course.
Since then we have added Literacy,  Academics and Language classes (Literacy and Numeracy) and an intensive Reading is thinking class for students needing additional reading support.
