Message from the Principal
As the tradition for over 100 years, Sacred Heart School, in concert with our local parish and
ever expanding family base, is blessed with to continue providing a Christ – centered, wellrounded, high quality educational alternative for the community of Wetaskiwin and surrounding
area.
We see our mission as three fold;
1. To provide an enriched, well-rounded educational program in Academics, Arts, and
Athletics in which all students may explore their God given potential within a safe
and caring environment. It is our hope that our students utilize these talents for the
greater good and give praise and thanks for their gifts with humble and pious
hearts.
‘You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden.
And they do not light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand,
so that it may shine to all who are in the house. So then, let your light shine
in the sight of men, so that they may see your good works, and may glorify
your Father, who is in heaven.’
Matthew 5:14-16
2. To prepare our students to walk in the footsteps of the Lord; to love our God with
all of our heart, soul and mind and to love one another as the same. To serve one
another as Jesus taught us.
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all
your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment.
And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
Matthew 22: 37-39
‘So when he had washed their feet [and] put his garments back on and
reclined at table again, he said to them, “Do you realize what I have done
for you? You call me ‘teacher’ and ‘master,’ and rightly so, for indeed
I am. If I, therefore, the master and teacher, have washed your feet,
you ought to wash one another’s feet. I have given you a model to follow,
so that as I have done for you, you should also do.’
John 13:12-15

3. To assist our students in reaching the end goal; eternal salvation.
‘Jesus said: I am the Way; I am Truth and Life. No one can come
to the Father except through me.’
John 14:6
‘Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but
only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven.’
Matthew 7:21
It is important to us that our families know that this is their school – that families are our first and
foremost concern and that we are here to support them in the raising of their children in a faith
filled environment. Once again I thank you on behalf of our school for entrusting us with your
most precious gifts – your children. We will endeavor to help you find and foster their personal
gifts and talents and let their lights shine for all to see!! We will endeavor to help your children
follow the teachings of Jesus, to keep to the path of eternal salvation.
Sincerely,
Kevin Prediger, Principal
Sacred Heart School
Sacred Heart School Prayer
Loving Jesus,
by the Grace of Your Sacred Heart,
help us to know You, to love You and to serve
You in this life,
so that we may live with you in the next.
Amen

School Profile
Demographic/Continued Growth: Sacred Heart School continues to experience growth with a
5% increase in enrolment across grade ECS to 9 for a total population of 450 students.
Demographic numbers remain consistent in the First Nations, Metis and Inuit (FNMI) population
(12% on reserve, 12.2 % off reserve) with another increase in ELL numbers (56) and students
accessing Catholic education from the community of Millet. The school has also seen an increase
in the number of resident Catholic families choosing Sacred Heart School. Also this year Sacred
Heart is offering a Preschool program to only 4 year olds. This program has increased from 15
four year olds last year to 22 this year.
Catholic Immersion: Sacred Heart School continues to be a school of choice for Catholic
Immersion. Sacred Heart provides its students with much more than access to religion classes; it
immerses students in our catholic culture every moment of the day. The focus on the teachings of
Jesus Christ is reflected through all policy and protocol, from the manner in which our staff
interact with students to permeation of faith in the classroom and celebrations, daily
opportunities for prayer, and emphasis on service of others. This is reflected in the school
community’s perception of Sacred Heart as a most Safe and Caring School.
Sacred Heart: A Catholic School of the Arts: Sacred Heart School is known for its focus on
well-rounded programming immersed in our Catholic identity. In keeping with our mission to
allow students to explore their God given gifts, elective and extracurricular programming at
Sacred Heart provides a wide array of visual, performing and practical arts opportunities for all
students. This in concert with a strong athletic program provided in core, elective and
extracurricular time help foster all students’ talents beyond the basic academic.
Sacred Heart Academics – a Focus on Literacy and Numeracy: A Response to Intervention
(RTI) School: As part of the school wide initiative to address academic success for all students,
Sacred Heart School is in the process of implementing RTI best practices. This includes a strong
focus on teacher collaboration on planning and assessment and a three tier approach to the
delivery of classroom instruction and other intervention strategies. The 4 main components of the
RTI model include: Collective Responsibility, Concentrated Instruction, Convergent Assessment
and Certain Access.
Emerging Issues and Trends
English as a Second Language: Sacred Heart is experiencing growth in the number of students
entering the school with English as a Second Language (ELL). With the support of government
funding, the school is expanding its ELL support system to include both human and technical
resources focused on Tier 1 (in class) and Tier 2 (pull out) programming. An in-house ELL
facilitator will identify individual student needs and co-ordinate resources (imbedded
Educational Assistant time, Rosetta Stone access, small group intervention time) to provide
greater opportunities for these students to enhance their written and spoken English skills.
Page 4
School: 3170 Sacred Heart School
Multiculturalism: With the influx of ELL students, many of whom are recent immigrants to
Canada, the face of Sacred Heart is changing. While a focus on the cultural needs of First
Nations and Caucasian students remains at the forefront, programs and protocols need to reflect
the multicultural nature of our student population and allow us to celebrate this rich Canadian
diversity including inclusive services such as the investment in a full time Family School Liaison
Worker to meet the needs of all students.
Maintaining our Catholic Identity: With the great diversity of student religious practices
including practicing Catholic families and baptized students but not engaged in the church, to
unbaptized children of Catholic parents and Christians of other faiths, keeping our Catholic
identity and mission is of utmost importance. It must be understood by all who choose to enroll
that Sacred Heart School is first and foremost a Catholic school with a specific mission beyond
the secular and that it is the responsibility of the school to be a partner with the home and parish
in the mission of evangelization.
Expanding boundaries: There are an increasing number of families from the rural areas of
Millet, Falun and Pigeon Lake making Sacred Heart School their school of choice. Care must be
taken to ensure good communication with all of our new families and identify the specific needs
of these students traveling greater distances for the opportunity of Catholic education.
Instructional practice - Use of Technology in the Classroom: Continued identification and
usage of technology to enhance learning opportunities in the classroom is necessary to provide
students with skills and attributes necessary for the 21st century learner. This requires an
investment in both human and capital resources; continuous teacher professional development,
software and hardware purchases and constant communications with stakeholders are all
required to provide our students with the best opportunities for learning. Wireless Chromebook
technology will be phased in this year along with Google Apps access.
Instructional practice - Response to Intervention: Differentiated instruction and support
through a Response to Intervention model will allow us to better identify the learning needs of
individual students and provide appropriate interventions for particular issues. This includes a
shift in Educational Assistant time allocation to more of an inclusive in the classroom model (i.e.
support of small group guided instruction in the classroom) in addition to continued support of
pull out interventions (i.e. precision reading, reading recovery). Daily tutorial time is now
available within regular instruction time (elective periods) for junior high students to promote
peer collaboration and teacher support for individual student academic concerns (refer to Sacred
Heart School’s RTI Pyramid of Intervention for further details on the RTI programming and
delivery).
A focus on Academic Excellence – Literacy – Reading Comprehension and Writing: Greater
focus will be made to address excellence in literacy across grades and subject areas including an
investment in a common writing program (6+1 writing traits), pre-teaching of vocabulary and
continued emphasis on reading comprehension through guided reading and RTI.
Page 5
School: 3170 Sacred Heart School
A focus on Academic Excellence - Assessment and Planning Practices: In order to support
individual assessment of specific learner outcomes (SLO’s) and evaluation of student
performance, the school will review its present assessment practices and align our practices to
reflect current assessment research (i.e. assessment for and of learning) and planning practices
(i.e. Backward Design). This will include common preparation time for grade level teachers
whenever possible and an emphasis on teacher collaboration on planning and assessment with
other subject areas teachers within and outside of the school.
A focus on Academic Performance – Academic Performance Reviews and Action Plans:
Each Division will utilize all available data (i.e. PAT Exams, Teacher’s assessments) to
formulate a specific action plan for addressing program delivery and instructional practices that
will have a positive impact on student achievement in each subject area.
A focus on Arts and Athletic Enrichment - Investing in Elective Programming: Sacred
Heart School will continue to promote and support a well-rounded educational program in Arts
and Athletics. Investment in teacher training through professional growth opportunities,
increased financial support of elective programs beyond student fees and continued delivery of
innovative programming (i.e. in house music, dance and art lessons) will all be supported.
Student choice for electives will continue to be supported.
Balancing a Well-rounded Education - Timetabling for Academics, Arts and Athletic
opportunities: A new timetable for this year will assist in improving transition times between
classes, balance elective programming times and provide opportunity to support RTI during the
elective blocks at the end of each day.
Engaging Stakeholders in School Decision Making: Sacred Heart School will continue to
work in collaboration with its stakeholders (i.e. home, parish, extended community) to ensure all
interested parties have the information and opportunity to be a part of the decision making
process and celebrate the successes of our students (i.e. Communications portfolio, newsletter
and website revisions, School Council principal’s reports focused on Educational Plan and
budget allocations).
Review of Division II Subject Area Specialist Initiative: A review of the effectiveness of
subject area specialist for core programming in grade 4, 5 and 6 will continue to determine
whether this style of program delivery is meeting the overall needs of our students including
academic and social success.
The 3 E’s: Engaged Thinker, Ethical Citizen,, Entrepreneurial Spirit: In keeping with the
new Ministerial Order outlining the framework for student learning in Alberta, Sacred Heart
School will begin the process of ensuring that literacy, numeracy, competencies and
subject/discipline areas essential for students to become engaged thinkers and ethical citizens
with an entrepreneurial spirit are embedded in our educational programming.

Measure Evaluation Reference
Achievement Evaluation
Achievement evaluation is based upon a comparison of Current Year data to a set of standards which remain consistent over time. The
Standards are calculated by taking the 3 year average of baseline data for each measure across all school jurisdictions and calculating
the 5th, 25th, 75th and 95th percentiles. Once calculated, these standards remain in place from year to year to allow for consistent
planning and evaluation.
The table below shows the range of values defining the 5 achievement evaluation levels for each measure.

Notes:
1) For all measures except Drop Out Rate: The range of values at each evaluation level is interpreted as greater than or equal to the
lower value, and less than the higher value. For the Very High evaluation level, values range from greater than or equal to the lower
value to 100%.
2) Drop Out Rate measure: As "Drop Out Rate" is inverse to most measures (i.e. lower values are "better"), the range of values at each
evaluation level is interpreted as greater than the lower value and less than or equal to the higher value. For the Very High evaluation
level, values range from 0% to less than or equal to the higher value.
Improvement Table
For each jurisdiction, improvement evaluation consists of comparing the Current Year result for each measure with the previous threeyear average. A chi-square statistical test is used to determine the significance of the improvement. This test takes into account the size
of the jurisdiction in the calculation to make improvement evaluation fair across jurisdictions of different sizes.
The table below shows the definition of the 5 improvement evaluation levels based upon the chi-square result.

Category Evaluation
The category evaluation is an average of the Overall Evaluation of the measures that make up the category. For the purpose of the
calculation, consider an Overall Evaluation of Excellent to be 2, Good to be 1, Acceptable to be 0, Issue to be -1, and Concern to be -2.
The simple average (mean) of these values rounded to the nearest integer produces the Category Evaluation value. This is converted
back to a colour using the same scale above (e.g. 2=Excellent, 1=Good, 0=Intermediate, -1=Issue, -2=Concern)

Academic success for all students continues to be the highest priority for school improvement. As such, Sacred Heart is implementing a
Response to Intervention (RTI) program with a focus on meeting the needs of each individual student through a tiered system on interventions
(see Sacred Heart School’s Pyramid of Interventions: Academic).
Of note is the discrepancy between overall academic performance on PAT exams and the perception of students, parents and teachers with
regard to the quality of education offered at the school. While overall PAT exam averages are consistently below the provincial and jurisdiction
averages, a high percentage of stakeholders are satisfied with the overall quality of education provided.
Strategies

Incorporation of Response to Intervention (RTI) strategies including: common preparation for grade level teachers (primary),
common long range planning for subject areas at each grade level, common major assessments within core subject areas.

times)

Continued focus on addressing the enrichment needs of high level learners in core subject areas

Resource allocation for support of an ELL facilitator

Resource allocation for support of EA time for ELL both within the classroom and pull out

Comment on Results
The school’s focus on implementing policies and programs permeated with Catholic teachings including a focus on promoting Safe and
Caring Schools over the past number of years is paying dividends in this area.
A 3 year trend averaging in the mid 60% range indicates that parents are less satisfied with workplace preparedness than the teaching
staff (92% average over 3 years).
The hiring of a Family-School Liaison and the implementation of a separate health classes at the junior high level (not combined with PE)
may assist in addressing workplace preparedness opportunities.

Comment on Results
Sacred heart Results for FNMI academic achievement remain on par with the province. Sacred Heart’s drop out rate at is reflective of the
safe and caring inclusive atmosphere as well as the Knowledge and Employability program that provides students the platform to feel
successful and build their self-esteem.
The focus on increasing the numbers of students achieving at the both the acceptable standard and the standard of excellence on PAT
exams is a focus for the entire school population, not only the FNMI students. As such our Tier 1, 2 and 3 interventions target student needs
based on individual needs.
Review of FNMI student success indicates there is a direct correlation between student achievement and attendance for many students.

The perception of Sacred Heart School as a Safe and Caring school community remains high with all stakeholder groups including a student
satisfaction of 91%.
While student satisfaction with school and jurisdiction improvements remains high (92%), teacher satisfaction has dropped considerably from
100 to 87% and parent satisfaction remains lower at 70% after a high of 93% two years ago. This may be a result of the administrative reassignment strategy implemented the spring of 2012 that was not well received by many in this community.

Note: Data values have been suppressed where the number of students or respondents is less than 6. Suppression is marked with an asterisk (*).
Achievement Evaluation is not calculated for courses that do not have sufficient data available, either due to too few jurisdictions offering the
course or because of changes in tests.
Please note that participation in Grade 9 Provincial Achievement Tests was substantially impacted by the flooding in June 2013. Caution should
be used when interpreting trends over time for the province and those school authorities affected by the floods.

Note: Data values have been suppressed where the number of students or respondents is less than 6. Suppression is marked with an asterisk (*).
Achievement Evaluation is not calculated for courses that do not have sufficient data available, either due to too few jurisdictions offering the
course or because of changes in tests.
Please note that participation in Grade 9 Provincial Achievement Tests was substantially impacted by the flooding in June 2013. Caution should
be used when interpreting trends over time for the province and those school authorities affected by the floods.

Measure Evaluation Reference - Achievement Evaluation
Achievement evaluation is based upon a comparison of Current Year data to a set of standards which remain consistent over time. The
Standards are calculated by taking the 3 year average of baseline data for each measure across all school jurisdictions and calculating the
5th, 25th, 75th, and 95th percentiles. Once calculated, these standards remain in place from year to year to allow for consistent planning and
evaluation.
The table below shows the range of values defining the 5 achievement evaluation levels for each measure.

Notes:
The range of values at each evaluation level is interpreted as greater than or equal to the lower value, and less than the higher value. For the
Very High evaluation level, values range from greater than or equal to the lower value to 100%.
Achievement Evaluation is not calculated for courses that do not have sufficient data available, either due to too few jurisdictions offering the
course or because of changes in tests.
Improvement Table
For each jurisdiction, improvement evaluation consists of comparing the Current Year result for each measure with the previous three-year
average. A chi-square statistical test is used to determine the significance of the improvement. This test takes into account the size of the
jurisdiction in the calculation to make improvement evaluation fair across jurisdictions of different sizes.
The table below shows the definition of the 5 improvement evaluation levels based upon the chi-square result.
