Support for Students at the CBE
Our students’ success is our top priority and we understand that our students live complex lives and that many factors both in school and outside of school can affect their ability to learn. The CBE offers a variety of services (such as Culture and Linguistic Support, Exceptional and Special Needs, and Psychological Services) to support students, their families and our school, so students can be successful learners.
Student Services
Student Services staff work with teachers and students in a variety of ways to support student success. This may include coordinating services and meeting with students and parents. Student Services staff may support task design and assessment, IPP (Individual Program Plan) development. Students may be supported in small groups or individual session for skill development in social or academic areas.
If you would like to contact Terry Fox's Student Services Team, please call our school office.
