Our school develops a school improvement plan that identifies our unique needs, goals and priorities, aligned with the Multi-Year Strategic Plan. You can learn more about Board priorities and strategies on the York Region District School Board website.
As part of our School Plan for Continuous Improvement, the major focus in Quality Workplaces has been to develop a character education program. Crosby Heights P.S. demonstrates character education throughout the entire school by:
- Having a rewards/awards program where the focus for all staff and students will be on the 10 Character Matters! character traits.
- Announcing daily reminders or sayings that involve the particular character trait of the month.
- Holding monthly assemblies in which positive student behaviour will be recognized.
- Rewarding the positive behaviour with certificates.
The next portion of this initiative is to provide staff materials that will help make character education part of everything they do, from delivering curriculum to managing the daily classroom. Crosby Heights Public School is Tribes Trained.
