Once themerger has been accepted by their members, they will also be able to share resources, such as information technology, fundraising tools, marketingmaterials, com- munity development research and more.

Good study results Trustees and staff for the Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) have reason to be pleased. The younger generations of Upper Canada district students are doing well according to the latest Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) test results. UCDSB Superintendent Valerie Allen reported, during the Oct. 26 board meeting, that the combined overall EQAO results for Grades 3 and 6 classes in the district have increased by 17 per cent since the 2002-2003 school year. Primary reading scores have increased four per cent since the 2011-2012 term, both the junior reading and writing scores have increased seven per cent and six per cent since that same period. The EQAO results are matched against a combined provincial average for all of Ontario’s schools.

New goals for UCDSB The Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) is setting new goals for its math and reading programs for students at all levels, from Kindergarten to Grade 12. By the end of next year, the UCDSB plans for a three per cent boost of primary and junior reading and writing levels, compared to the provincial standard. A five-per cent improvement in literacy skills for first-time eligible students is also at goal for 2017. In mathematics, the UCDSB goals are 90 per cent of classroom participation in number talks and improved critical thinking, and analysis skills and comprehension sufficient to achieve at least a 10 per cent improvement in the overall grade achievement, compared to the provincial standard. – Gregg Chamberlain
