Learning For The Future

Posted on December 1, 2019 (December 2, 2019) by mperry

As St. Clement’s plans strategically for the coming years, it has been imperative to research trends, gather external and internal data, and access research. One piece of research that has recently come to our attention is a White Paper on Gen Z entitled Gen Z: a Generation to Look Up To.

Women’s Role in Philanthropy: Preparing For The Future

Posted on November 17, 2019 (November 21, 2019) by mperry

One of our school’s pillars in our 2017-2020 strategic plan has been to enhance our philanthropic culture; while the focus contributes to our school’s sustainability, philanthropy is something we believe our girls and alumnae should understand.

A Lens on Artificial Intelligence: Machines Like Me

Posted on November 11, 2019 (November 12, 2019) by mperry

 

The long weekend presents a little more time and space in which to step away. In my case, that often means taking some time to catch up on reading for pleasure.

The Best Path Is Rarely a Straight Line

Posted on November 3, 2019 (November 4, 2019) by mperry

At St. Clement’s we often repeat this statement as a reminder that things are never straight forward and the most important learning is messy. While we are oftentimes daunted by the journey that lies before us,

Things Are Not Always As They Seem

Posted on October 20, 2019 (October 21, 2019) by mperry

At the end of last week and into the weekend, I attended the Canadian Accredited Independent Schools’ (CAIS) Heads and Chairs conference with Karen McKay, our school’s Vice Chair of the Board,

Building A Community

Posted on October 13, 2019 (December 11, 2023) by mperry

On Friday afternoon, after the girls had left and I had just finished catching up with several of our staff, I walked down the hallway and paused to read a poster on a bulletin board outside the Grade 7 classrooms.

Planning For The Future

Posted on October 6, 2019 (October 7, 2019) by mperry

It is amazing to me that this year marks the final year of our three-year strategic plan. It is time to begin planning for the future. In some ways, ‘planning for the future’ seems fruitless as the future is an unknown entity.
