At Thompson we have a three-pronged approach to enhancing student learning:

1. BEING

• enhancing student self-regulation skills
• honouring the strengths and stretches of each individual
• celebrating diversity of our collective community
• sharing our learning and our stories with pride and enthusiasm

2. BELONGING

• using consistent school-wide language to embrace and embody care, kindness and respect for ourselves and each other
• updating and enhancing spaces in our school to empower our learners and foster well-being, responsibility, accountability and care for our place
• ensuring the resources used reflect the identities of our students
• strengthening relationships between students, staff and families
• sitting in circle during school-wide assemblies
• integrating the First Peoples' Principles of Learning

3. BECOMING

• reflecting on data to be responsive and intentional with next steps
• recognizing that learning is hard and involves patience and time
• celebrating our collective story, owning any mis-steps and being committed to taking action for equity, diversity, inclusion and truth
