ENVIRONMENTAL CLUB

Centre for Education & TrainingT.L. Kennedy's Environmental Club is proud to enter into a partnership with Think Recycle.

Through this program we collect used cell phones, used ink cartridges and used laser printer cartridges and send to Think Recycle. They pay us for these items and we use these funds to support our Environmental Club at TLK.

If you have any of these items at home, please do not throw them out. It is better for the environment and T.L. Kennedy if you bring these items to school and put them in the Think Recycle box located in the main office.

LITERACY TEST NEWS

We Improved on the Literacy Test Again!

This year, our students writing the literacy test for the very first time achieved a 77% pass rate. This is an improvement over last year’s result of 73%. The rest of the province maintained an overall average of 84%. So while on average, schools across the province did not show improvement, our school did. We are proud of the achievement of our students, particularly since 71% of our students speak little to no English at home.

Here are some more highlights:

  • Our regular students writing for the first time were 4% more successful over last year
  • English As A Second Language students writing for the first time were 27% more successful over last year
  • Applied students writing for the very first time were 27% more successful over last year
  • Special Education Students writing for the first time were 13% more successful over last year
