We encourage parents to always contact the school when their children are going to be away. The general congruence of programs with Ministry of Education and Board guidelines is demonstrated in teachers' long-range and daily plans. Much reassurance is given to those students who show signs of insecurity. Students are given more responsibilities such as office helpers, monitors, prayer leaders, etc. as acknowledgment of their efforts and needs. Teachers work together to modify programs for those students who need modifications, whether they be gifted or developmentally delayed.
Pupil education plans outline specific modifications and strategies to ensure students' success.
Curriculum initiatives are a direct result of a desire to accommodate students learning needs. They are the focus when modifications are made. The provincial standards will be used to determine the level of success. Monsignor John Corrigan is a small school. Many guest speakers and presenters have been invited to further our students' knowledge of black history, conservation, care of pets and rabies prevention, importance of peace, drug awareness, community service, art, etc.
