Jr. High Midterm Exams

Click to view larger

Junior High Students will be writing midterm exams at the end of January in all four of the core subjects of language arts, science, math and social studies. It is extremely important that all junior high students prepare ahead of these exams by re-reading all notes and reviewing subject materials and assignments. By beginning now and reviewing for a period of time each day, they will avoid the need to study at the last minute for exhaustive periods of time. The exams may include all topics covered since August. The dates are as follows: 

  • Monday, January 23 - Language Arts (Gr 7, 8 and 9) 
  • Tuesday, January 24 - Science (Gr 7, 8 and 9) 
  • Wednesday, January 25 - Math (Gr 7, 8 and 9) 
  • Thursday, January 26 - Social Studies (Gr 7, 8 and 9)

On those dates, the students will write the exam during the first two periods of the morning, followed by regular classes for the remainder of the day. Students are expected to remain in school for the entire day.

Fultonvale Provincial Achievement Test Results

Students all across Alberta in grades 3, 6 and 9 wrote the annual Provincial Achievement Tests (PATs) in May and June. Fultonvale students again scored very well in relation to the provincial averages, and showed improvement in several areas. The number of Fultonvale students who achieved the acceptable standard was significantly above the provincial average on all 10 tests. Individual student profiles for students in grades 3, 6 and 9 will be sent home with their first report card.

Character Education – Loyalty

Click to view larger

 In the months of January and February our school will be exploring the virtue of loyalty. Loyalty is faithfulness or a devotion to a person, country, group, or cause. The cause has to be an objective one. It cannot be one's personal self. It is something external to oneself that one looks outward to the world to find, and that cannot be found within. It concerns not one's own person, but other people. The devotion is active, a surrendering of one's self-will to the cause, that one loves. Loyalty is social. Join us in exploring loyalty to one's family, friends, community and country.
