The Lucknow Sentinel, 2015-03-11, Page 11Bluewater District School Board Briefs Mary Golem OMI Agency Concussion Management A new concussion man- agement procedure is now in place at all BWDSB schools. Like other schools boards across Ontario, Bluewater had to develop a procedure to monitor and support students who have experienced a concussion, whether or not that injury takes place at school or outside of school. "We are to monitor pro- gress and be flexible in our approach to having a student return to learning and physi- cal activity," superintendent of education Jean Stephen- son told trustees when pre- senting the new procedure. "We are required to edu- cate staff, students, volun- teers and the community on the signs and symptoms of a concussion," she said, including tracking occur- rences of medically docu- mented concussions. Numerous resources have been developed, she added, including a lami- nated pocket card to recog- nize signs and symptoms of a concussion and fol- low-up treatment. In addi- tion, a phone app has been developed for use by sport team coaches. "We want to ensure our students return to good health without further risk," Stephenson said. September 2016 Return to School Teachers will be return- ing to school before the Labour Day weekend in September 2016. In order to meet the required 178 instructional days and 10 examination days for secondary stu- dents and 188 instructional days for elementary stu- dents, teachers will return to school for a professional development day on Thursday, September 3. Students will begin school on the Tuesday after the long weekend. The calendar, which includes a two-week break at Christmas, one week for March Break and sixp rofes- sional development days, was approved by trustees. Bruce Power Recognized for Support to Education Bruce Power will receive support from the Bluewa- ter District School Board in its bid for a five-year license renewal. Director of Education Steve Blake told trustees the board's support "is not an endorsement of nuclear power ... that is not in our place to comment on since it is out of our sphere, but rather an acknowledge- ment of Bruce Power's on- going support to educa- tion. We have several community partnerships and we value them as a good corporate citizen!' Blake rhymed off a lengthy list of initiatives or programs Bruce Power supports including a scholarship program, robotics competition, sci- ence fair, chidren's water festival, co-operative edu- cation programs and the outdoor education centre "to name just a few," Blake commented. Seeking Input for Multi -Year Strategic Plan BWDSB is seeking input from students, parents, staff and the community as it undergoes a review of its multi-year strategic plan. A survey, which includes ten questions regarding the board's vision, mission and priori- ties, is available on the board's website (www. bwdsb.on.ca) from March 2 to April 24. "School boards are encouraged to review their strategic plans on a cycli- cal basis to ensure that all stakeholders are commit- ted to the same path in order to support the suc- cess and well-being of all students," director of edu- cation Steve Blake stated. "We hope that many par- ents, guardians, students, staff and community members will come for- ward to participate in our survey." Following an analysis by staff of the survey feed- back, recommended next steps for the board's Stra- tegic Plan will be pre- sented to trustees at their June meeting.
