Alberta Education Assurance (AEA) Survey
Alberta Education is introducing the 2020-2021 Alberta Education Assurance (AEA) Survey this year, which has replaced the former Accountability Pillar Survey. Over the next month, parents and guardians of students in Grades 4 to 12 may receive survey information in the mail from Alberta Education. This information will include links and a code to complete the survey online.

The results of the Assurance Survey give New Heights and Alberta Education information and evidence about the quality of your child’s education. It informs goals and plans for improvement, as well as celebrates the areas that are done well.

Alberta Education will be conducting their annual Assurance Survey until April 28th, 2021.

Survey results are made available to school authorities, and will inform our New Heights Education Plan as well as be reported in our Annual Education Results Report.

Featured App: Time Timer
This app is a customizable timer that can act as a clear, colorful visual to help with understanding the concept of time.  

With the Time Timer app you can create colourful visuals for time management. You can customize and save multiple timers to reuse as needed. Setting options include which audible sound the timer makes when it completes, whether your device will also vibrate, how many times the timer plays, and what color the timer is.

This app can help with staying focused on timed tasks, visualizing the passage of time, managing transitions, as well as helping with waiting.
