ICYMI: Survey shows many Calgary students losing interest in volunteerism, global issues, diversity yyc

“Between January and March of last year, as a society we saw the relaxation of COVID restrictions, the beginning of a global conflict in Ukraine, and civil unrest both in Alberta and Ottawa,” said Joanne Pitman, CBE superintendent of school improvement.

Trustee Marilyn Dennis said COVID-19’s effects on staff and student absenteeism last year — including early 2022 when the Omicron variant was spreading rapidly through schools — also made it difficult for students to volunteer. “All of these opportunities build confidence in students, and help them understand the community around them.”But according to the data, student volunteerism, as well as interest in national and global affairs, was low well before the pandemic started.

And in 2018-19, report cards showed an average of only 44 per cent of students from kindergarten to Grade 9 demonstrated respect and appreciation for diversity.Article content
