High Prairie School Division will launch its new literacy and numeracy frameworks at its schools in September.
Both documents provide a unified division approach to how literacy and numeracy skills are taught from kindergarten to Grade 12, says a May 2 HPSD news release.
Supt. Murray Marran laid the foundation for the framework two years ago with his vision of a common approach to literacy and numeracy across the division.
“What was really important to me when I was working with the committees . . . is that we have practical applications for teachers embedded into the documents,” Marran says.
HPSD is currently supporting other school divisions as they develop their own frameworks.
