Good afternoon, Raven families,
Today, the five Calgary Alternative Science Schools gathered at Riverside for a full day of professional learning. It was an incredible opportunity for staff to both attend and present workshops, sharing innovative practices and learning from one another. Sessions included Mr. Baranec’s 3D Printing workshop, Ms. Beatty’s engaging STEM challenges, and Mr. Bykovskikh’s work around Science Fair design and implementation. The energy in the building was inspiring, and it was truly a celebration of collaboration and creativity in science education. We are excited to bring our new learning back to our classrooms and put it into practice on Monday.
I would also like to take a moment to thank Ms. Gray and Mr. Tschritter for leading our Grade 9 band students on a memorable three-day, two-night trip. From bowling to card games, to time spent playing in the snow — along with meaningful music-making — it was a wonderful experience for our students. We are so grateful for the time, care, and effort that went into making this trip such a success.
Thank you for your continued support of our school community. Wishing all of our families a wonderful and restful weekend!
