SCHOOL DIVISION GOALS
AND OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the Portage la Prairie School Division
are as follows. These objectives are not necessarily in order of priority.
- To develop in all students competency to the level of their ability in the
skills related to the curricula, including technology skills, established by
the Province and by the School Division. To provide, whenever possible,
opportunities for students to develop their abilities in such areas as arts
and recreation. To foster actively in each student personal attributes, such
as responsibility and respect, as essential requirements for social
effectiveness.
- To encourage positive change. To provide opportunities for the acquisition
of knowledge and skills required by students and staff.
To engage in positive, respectful communication,
thereby involving all stakeholders in the decision-making process.
To build strong relationships with all Division personnel.
To maximize resources by providing sound fiscal management.
To provide facilities and support services that are truly supportive of
the educational program.
To subscribe to the principles of Sustainable Development in attempting to
meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs. The Division will consider the
protection of our environment with regard to its procurement decisions. It
will, as well, encourage the awareness and understanding of environmental
issues and topics within the existing K-12 curricula, whenever possible, in
line with the Sustainable Development Act. See also EK, EPB
To provide direction for all sectors of the Division, by communicating
clear expectations.
To routinely conduct a strategic review of the above with a view to the
