Bluewater District School Board is celebrating the many examples of student achievement and success in its schools during Education Week from May 7 – 11, 2018.

This year's theme is "Equity in Action". Students and staff will be participating in a variety of themed activities that exemplify Bluewater District School Board's strategic priority to "provide quality instruction and learning experiences in an equitable and inclusive environment."

Examples of activities occurring in Bluewater District School Board schools will once again be featured throughout Education Week on the board's website at www.bwdsb.on.ca, and on its Facebook and Twitter accounts. Students, parents/guardians, staff, and community members are invited to share their own examples of some of the untold stories of equity in action occurring in Bluewater schools by posting on their social media accounts using the hashtag, #EdWeekBWDSB.

Education Week also provides an ideal opportunity to reflect on and honour the vitally important work and dedication of many individuals, who come together to create the conditions that contribute to an equitable, strong, and sustainable education system. The continued efforts and collaboration of staff, parents/guardians, volunteers, community partners, and other stakeholders are imperative to the success and well-being of students, both now and beyond their years in our school system. They are at the very root of important awareness occasions such as Education Week, and we extend our gratitude to each and every one of them.
