 The Boyle Street Education Centre believes that socially, economically and otherwise disadvantaged students deserve the opportunity for full and equal participation in the life of Alberta. The Centre further believes that the provision of a holistic education program within the context of a multi-disciplinary community model and a supportive environment will maximize opportunities for students and that such education must be student centered and student driven. Our vision is to be an education centre that is holistic in nature and aspires to facilitate the mental, physical, emotional and spiritual growth of students who have previously been unsuccessful or have had interruptions in their school experience. Students will: • maximize their capacity to pursue post-secondary learning if they choose to do so and/or; • enter the workforce, and; • understand the rights and responsibilities of citizenship. Our purpose is to promote the success of students who are high-risk youth or who have been out of school, in their goals of education, including the acquisition of social and employability skills, so they may be responsible, caring and contributing members of society; and to encourage the participation in and commitment to the education process by parents and caregivers, students and the community. The Boyle Street Education Centre goal is to engage high-risk and out-of-school youth back into the learning process. Student goal attainment will be measured using the following outcomes: • school attendance • academic progress • utilization of available support services • participation in school and community life |
