RDCRS Engagement Summit
Red Deer Catholic Regional Division (RDCRS) Board of Trustees looks for ways to regularly engage our community to help form the decisions and direction of the school division. The RDCRS Engagement Summit allows an opportunity for parents, staff, and community members to provide input into two key areas of our strategic planning. The two areas for this Summit are (1) helping to establish budget priorities for future planning, and (2) feedback on developing RDCRS exit outcomes for learners.
Topic 1: Establishing Budget Priorities
Topic 2: Development of Division Exit Outcomes for Learners
The summit will be held Wednesday, November 22, from 6:00-7:30 pm at St. Lorenzo Ruiz School. You may attend in person or online.
RDCRS Engagement Summit - IN PERSON
RDCRS Engagement Summit - ONLINE
