- Welcome to
- Student Services
Student
Services is a department of Hanover
School
Division, the largest rural school division
in Manitoba. It is located in the South-Eastern part of the
province,
with board offices in Steinbach.
The
communities of Steinbach, Blumenort, Landmark, Niverville, New
Bothwell, Kleefeld, Grunthal and Mitchell, as well as the
Municipality of Hanover, are served by Hanover School Division.
Our Mission
Statement:
The Division
supports the provincial
definition of inclusion:
"Inclusion is a way of thinking and acting that allows every individual
to
feel accepted, valued and safe. An inclusive community
consciously
evolves to meet the changing needs of its members. Through
recognition
and support, an inclusive community provides meaningful involvement and
equal
access to the benefits of citizenship. In Manitoba, we embrace inclusion as a
means of
enhancing the well-being of every member of the community. By
working
together, we strengthen our capacity to provide the foundation for a
richer
future for all of us."
(ME, 2006).
Our
Vision:
The vision
and beliefs of Student
Services supports this definition and demonstrates our commitment to
assisting
schools as they provide an environment within which all students can
develop
educationally and flourish personally and socially. We are
committed to
maximizing the potential of students and empowering them to become
valued,
contributing participants in the classroom, school and community, and
as
citizens within our society.
Student
Services Staff and
schools are committed to:
- Providing
inclusive learning environments as defined by appropriate education
legislation.
- Providing
equitable access to appropriate educational programming through a
continuum of supports and services.
- Developing
meaningful and collaborative partnerships with students, educators,
families and communities.
Our
Beliefs:
- All students
can learn, and all students want to learn.
- Learners
need to feel accepted, valued and safe in order to take the risks
necessary for growth.
- Some
learners come to school with exceptional academic, physical and
social/emotional needs that must be addressed.
- Growth
occurs when the learning environment respects the capabilities of all
learners and provides the challenge and expectations to foster
individual development.
- Belonging is
a key component of inclusion and is fostered through the development of
a sense of community, via the promotion of positive social interactions
and meaningful interpersonal relationships.
- Equity
recognizes the fact that students will require different supports,
services and programming if they are truly to have access to
opportunities that will foster their success. Moreover, access to
the curriculum means that programming may take place in a variety of
settings within the school or community.
