Division Priorities

Peace Wapiti Public School Division (PWPSD) has three priority areas that capture the important improvement work the division is engaged in: Excellence in Student Learning, Teaching, and Leadership, Equity, and Wellness.
 
Throughout the 2024-2025 school year, the Division hosted Priority Engagement sessions to learn more of what our school communities value. The image below shows a snapshot of what we heard; for additional information, please visit the PWPSD 2025-2029 Assurance Plan.

Priority: Excellence in Student Learning, Teaching, and Leadership

Student LearningExcellence is achieved when students are engaged in meaningful learning, educators deliver responsive instruction, and leaders create the conditions for equitable and effective learning.
 
 

Priority: Equity

EquityEquity is fairness or justice in the way people are treated. (Merriam Webster)
 
Educational Equity is understood as educators providing all students with the individual support they need to reach and exceed a common standard (Curtis Linton) and academic success.
 
At PWPSD, a commitment to Educational Equity ensures each student will be met with high expectations and provided relevant learning experiences to achieve the skills and learning necessary for success.
 
 

Priority: Wellness

WellnessAt PWPSD, wellness is foundational to success and influences how we learn, grow, and thrive. We believe that wellness is influenced by mental, emotional, social, and physical factors. Wellness encompasses developing effective coping strategies for life's challenges, fostering a positive self-image, managing emotions, taking care of yourself, nurturing connected relationships, and supporting physical health through daily habits and healthy environments, such as movement, nutrition, rest, and thoughtful spaces.
 
 

Our Teams

PWPSD has several teams that work independently and together to assist staff, students, and families focus on its priorities.
