UCDSB earns Canada Award of Excellence Board had to demonstrate there was a sound systematic approach to a healthy workplace with good results being achieved in key areas. Among the reasons an Excellence Canada veri¿cation team recommended the board for certi¿cation were that: Senior leadership has transformed the UCDSB, embedding a culture of wellness that goes far beyond programs. Their goal is to build a kind, generous work environment. As a result, staff describes leadership as “a genuine face of warmth and kindness.” A highly developed and well understood Strategic Plan – CREW – embeds and supports wellness. Everyone understands how their work contributes to the 90 per cent graduation rate goal. Programs have a synergizing focus (doing it together; responding with unconditional support to a need; studentbased decision making). The board demonstrated that its programs are not just “one-time events” but help make concrete progress to ensuring sustained success. The award was of¿cially presented to the board during a ceremony on Nov. 14, in Brockville. Submitted by the Upper Canada District School Board.
