We have not achieved success but acknowledge and appreciate that this is a on-going journey. This is the notion behind our district&#8217;s vision of &#8220;Learning by Design.&#8221; We are the intentional architects and designers of these new learning experiences, places, spaces, and endeavours. Our work is deliberate, meaningful and challenges the status quo. Teachers takes risks, try, experiment, and repeat. What a privilege to learn from their stories.<\/p>\n<p>At our dinner series in February, we were fortunate to hear from three\u00a0outstanding educators, and a student, as they shared their passions in trying to make their classrooms and learning more meaningful. You can find their stories here:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Communicating Student Learning<\/strong> featuring teacher Beverley Bunker from Crescent Park Elementary School.
