Notes:
(Detailed description and FAQs)
1. SOS Alberta's COVID-19 School Tracker compiles K-12 school-associated reports in an effort to centralize case information from across Alberta. We do not offer interpretations of the reports, nor can we speculate on recoveries or health status (recovery data is not currently released by authorities). The tally numbers reflect cumulative counts of reports and status changes declared by local or provincial health authorities. 
2. All cases listed are verified through best available means: sourced from a reputable media or government report, or supported by voluntary submissions of official communication from school administration, school authorities, or Alberta Health Services. 
3. Wording variations: "case confirmed, individual diagnosed, etc" may occur because of direct quote or close paraphrasing from the original communications so as not to introduce interpretation bias in these listings. 
4. SOS volunteers are working diligently to report the best available information for the sake of public interest. Reports are rapidly evolving, and we try to update to the best of our ability.
5. Please submit case notification letters to info(AT)supportourstudents.ca. Anonymity of sender will be respected.

10 Strategies for Equitable Public Education

We would like the Alberta Government to redefine and recommit the government’s responsibility to a more equitable public education system for all Alberta students.
  1. Make high quality early childhood education universal and accessible, leveling the playing field and closing the achievement gap for underprivileged children.
  2. Build schools as community engagement centres, comprehensive facilities where children and citizens can participate physically, intellectually and civically.
  3. Eliminate ALL barriers including all school-related fees (including, but not limited to, instructional materials, bussing, lunch supervision) and application procedures.
  4. All schools should have a full, inclusive, and balanced curriculum including but not limited to arts, music, science, history, language arts, additional languages, mathematics, and physical education.
  5. Reduce class sizes to bring them in line with the recommendations in the Alberta Learning Commission report of 2003 & provide adequate supports for classroom complexity.
  6. Integrate charter schools into public system, eliminating all fees and ability to deny access.
  7. Provide integrated services for students including medical and social services that help children keep up with advantaged peers.  One in six Alberta children live in poverty.
  8. Reduce emphasis on high stakes standardized testing. Provide alternative and more comprehensive criteria for measuring student success.
  9. Return to specialization for teachers at all grade levels.
  10. Recognize that public education is a public responsibility not a consumer good.  Its quality and accessibility should be equitable across the province.
