CAPSC Meeting Tonight

Below is some information about the CAPSC meeting tonight, I can't make it but it looks very interesting. If anyone can make this meeting and report about it to the Council next week it would be very appreciated. Its at AE Cross School from 7pm - 9pm.

We are very excited to be hosting Dr. Stephen Murgatroyd as our keynote speaker at tomorrow night’s meeting. Dr. Murgatroyd is an educational policy consultant who – with more than 30 years researching and writing about education, assessment, and school administration – will shed light on the upcoming changes to the School Act, recent changes to math / science diploma exams, and shifts we might expect to see in our education system over the coming years. Dr. Murgatroyd currently consults for both the Alberta Teachers’ Association as well as the Alberta Government (Premier’s Economic Council), so has first-hand and very in-depth knowledge of the strengths and challenges of education in our province. We expect Dr. Murgatroyd’s presentation to be an excellent follow-up to the Minister’s presentation and Q&A last month, as Dr. Murgatroyd will be able to provide an inside look at the issues, limitations, and options facing Minister Hancock.
