SMART Showcase School

In May of 2008, I received the designation of SMART Exemplary Educator, and I won the Prime Ministers Award for Excellence in Teaching, and my school, Davison Elementary School received the designation of becoming a SMART Showcase School. These designations combined with Davison's status as a CAP Site (Community Access Program) has attracted a lot of attention to our school from people throughout Saskatchewan. On average we have 2-3 people visit our school per week. Throughout the 2008/09 School year we have upwards of 100 visitors. Today is an exciting day because Davison's hard work and determination in the area of technology has received interprovincial recognition. Please click on the blog posting below to read how a grad student from the University of Alberta recognizes Davison's progress with Technology Integration.
