Cloud = applications that are on the internet, and not on your computer. With more student-owned devices coming into schools every year, and with the shift from wired to wireless access, it is essential that students are provided with a consistent set of learning resources anytime, anywhere. By providing our students with Google Apps through SchoolZone, new teaching and learning strategies will be adopted and developed to support student learning anytime, anywhere with single-sign-on access.
Students at this school now have access to Google Apps for Education through SchoolZone. Google Apps allows students to communicate and collaborate using Google powered email and calendars, and make documents, presentations and websites easily. Accounts are created and administered through District Technology and using Google Apps Education Edition. See more information including an overview of Google Apps in EPS, info on how to use Google Apps, and information about the portal and privacy.
What implications does this have for students? Students will now have access to their files, school email, grades, calendars, and collaborative tools to create documents, presentations, and sites whenever they have access to the internet - at any time, from most types of devices. Teachers will continue to post assignments and class information to SchoolZone, but now these include online, collaborative documents. Not sure what that means? Check out this prensentation...

Google Docs
Don't Hand in Your Homework...Share it instead.
When you create a document using your Share (Google) Docs account, "Share" it with your teacher. That way, you never have to worry about forgetting to hand something in.
"Sharing" gives them live access to your document to provide feedback and to grade your work.

Student Conduct Policy
Students enrolled with Edmonton Public Schools are expected to behave in ways conducive to learning. To that end, Edmonton Public Schools has developed a Student Behaviour and Conduct Policy.
This policy outlines exactly how students are expected to behave as well as what types of consequences may be implemented should your son or daugher choose not to adhere to appropriate behaviour expectations.
Additionally, when a student makes the choice to attend T. D. Baker School, our Committment to Success contract is also signed. This document covers attendance expectations, behaviour, dress, student conduct and additional items that will assist to bring about success at the junior high level.
It is our sincere believe at T.D. Baker school that all students have the right to a safe and caring environment which protects the individual rights of all students in an atmosphere of educational mentoring and teaching.
If you have any questions about the expectations of students at T. D. Baker School or of Edmonton Public Schools, please do not hesitate to contact us.
