From the Editor
I would like to take the opportunity to congratulate our teachers who are teaching students mathematics and science who are doing a super
job according to a report in the Edmonton journal in February. A recent
world-wide study has shown that Alberta’s Grade 12 students are
among the world’s strongest in science and above average in mathematics. Students in Grades 4 and 8 are achieving outstanding results in mathematics.
We must not forget the teachers who teach mathematics in other grades. They, too must be doing a superior job to prepare students for the teachers who receive them in Grades 4, 8 and 12.
Despite large classes and decreased budgets, Alberta teachers have proven that they can get the job done. They can be justly proud.
I hope our government and the general public are prepared to recognize and reward this superior performance …
