The Conestoga Valley (CV) School District board has unanimously passed a resolution supporting the adoption of the Profile of a CV Learner as the "North Star" in providing the means and pathways for district students to reach their fullest potential. The profile represents the important foundational elements of all learners' education, and its purpose is to provide learners with an education that sets them on a path to reach their fullest potential in life, regardless of their direction after graduation.
After gathering input from more than 900 students, staff members, faculty members, administrators, parents, business leaders and others through both face-to-face meetings and online surveys, a group of staff members, administrators and board members saw five distinct categories taking shape. Using these, it was determined that the CV community wants all CV learners to be innovative problem solvers, communicators, global citizens, lifelong learners and collaborators.
The design of the Profile of a CV Learner was created by CV students Catherine Scala, Alayna McEvoy and Natalie Kiel. In the design, the CV logo sits in the center. Surrounding it in a circle are five puzzle pieces, which are a nod to CV's Character Education program. Surrounding these is CV's motto, "Character, Community, Commitment."
With the logo complete and the resolution passed, the district will now work on creating additional resources for staff and parents to help implement the Profile's five categories both in and out of the classroom. A rollout of the Profile and these resources is planned for the start of the 2019-20 school year.
