Classroom Champions Program at Crestomere School
This school year, we've been paired with Olympic athlete, Maddison Pearman, who will mentor our students through motivational videos, virtual visits and connections. This program has been sponsored in our school by Baytex, and includes weekly lessons that enhance social-emotional learning in our students. Recently, we were cheering on Maddison as she was at trials in Quebec, and now she has qualifited for the Wolrd Cup. Congratulations to our Athlete Mentor!
