Gr.8 Ss at NGA solve a thinking task. Centering Ss in their learning & giving them space to bring their ways of knowing into the classroom allows us & them to see their brilliance, allows them to build life skills & works towards equity in our education system. #ccrce @NG_Academy

Congrats to Shane Pitts, Vice-Principal at New Glasgow Academy, on being an Education Week Award Recipient #NSEdWeek21
Shane represents the theme of well-being in all that he does. He works hard as an administrator to help support all students by creating a restorative school.
NGA staff and students are rocking virtual learning. Tons of creativity in lessons and lots of enthusiasm in students. Also love that many parents/guardians get a glimpse of what our school does every day. @CCRCE_NS
Our Grade 8s participated in an Academic Decathlon - ELA and Math challenges, social justice sidewalk art, cookie bake-offs and spaghetti structures showed off how being “smart” and “successful” can look differently for different students. We all have our strengths! @CCRCE_NS
