Students Showcase Accessibility Learning

To celebrate inclusion, students made posters that show people of all abilities doing fun or important things.

The Grade 5/6 class at Confederation Park Elementary, whose posters were displayed in their school, worked on the project after watching new District-wide videos focused on accessibility, barriers, inclusion, and disability.

The videos were shared by the District with schools this fall to help staff and students to engage with accessibility throughout the school year and to build awareness. These learning opportunities are part of supporting the school district’s commitment to creating inclusive and accessible learning environments for all.

Another part of this commitment involves working with community to help inform our work. The District has advisory and working committees to gather information about accessibility and assist in identifying barriers in the District. Feedback is encouraged through a variety of ways, with information about how to do so found here.
