Strathmore area
schools below average

Times Reporter

Every year the Fraser Institute produces report

cards on various groups of schools in various prov-
inces. This year the result came out on March 13.

“In Alberta we produce report cards on elemen-
gallery host
tary schools (K to 6 or K to 8), and also later in the
annual showcase year we’ll produce one on high schools,” said Peter
Cowley, director of school performance studies at the
Page 15 Fraser Institute and co-author of the report card on
Alberta’s elementary schools.
The Strathmore area, which includes Chestermere,
Langdon, and Carseland, doesn’t have any schools
that are showing statistically significant improvement
in their overall ratings. There are three that are show-
ing statistically significant decline, said Cowley.
“If we’re talking about Strathmore as an area, we’re
talking about an area where there doesn’t seem to
be any real improvement at any of the schools,” said
Cowley.
Chiefs take out Lightning, “Three of the schools are showing a drop in their
have upper-hand results over the last five years and the rest are stable,
on Red Deer which could be good if they were all doing well, but
the fact of the matter is they are not.”
He said the average rating for all of the schools
Page 17 in the Strathmore area is below average. The highest
performing area is High River. Cowley said Edmonton
schools are doing better than Strathmore, and there
is a lot of improvement to be made in the Strathmore
area.
“In the case of St. Gabriel the Archangel in Chester-
mere and Sacred Heart in Strathmore and Westmount
in Strathmore - those schools should be of consider-
able interest and concern to the people most affected,
the parents, the educators and the students at the
school,” said Cowley.
HCC wins first “The question should be, ‘if we’re going down in

wrong, then what’s our plan to improve?’ That would

tests not written, which is based on
participation rates. Cowley said every
student is supposed to be writing the
tests and they want to be sure every-
one is. He said they use those for each
year.
“For each year we bring all those in-
dicators together in a statistically valid
way to come up with what we call the
overall rating out of 10,” said Cowley.
“So every single school that’s in the
report card gets a rating out of 10. The
average for all the schools is six.”
The Strathmore area is at 5.5 on the
rating. The rating is a way to determine
how the school is doing compared to
all the other schools in the area.
“Just looking at how a school did in
2010 does not give you much of an
idea as to, generally, the level academ-
ic performance at the school,” said
Cowley.
“That’s why we provide, on the web-
site and in the PDF, five years of data.”
He recommends that anybody who
wants a better idea of how a school
is doing, to look at all five years of
results. If there are any statistically
significant changes in any of the in-
dicators, or in the overall rating, it is
shown in each individual school table
with the trend indicator. An up arrow
shows the school is improving, and
a down arrow means it is declining.
While the Strathmore area only has
three schools showing a statistically
significant decline, the schools are
still below average. Go to www.com-
pareschoolrankings.org to compare

Growing opportunities Growth management study

Shannon LeClair
Times Reporter
With the help of a grant from the New
Horizons for seniors program, through
the government of Canada, the Growing
Families Society has been working on the
Bridging the Gap Program.
“It’s a one year grant and our hope is to
get this started, and then find other means
in the community to continue it on,” said
Jeanette MacKay, mentorship supervisor.
The purpose of the Bridging the Gap
Program is to develop and deploy older
adult volunteers. The volunteers, all 55
plus, would help support the three key ini-
tiatives. One of the initiatives is the Cook-
ing Together program. Cooking Together
is for older adults who enjoy socializing
and cooking to get together and cook.
The classes take place on Fridays at the
Lord of All Lutheran Church and it costs
only $5 to register. Anyone interested in
participating must register on Wednesday.
Transportation will be provided if it’s the
thing stopping someone from attending.
“We have three volunteers, they do all
the shopping and the organizing and
whatnot,” said MacKay.
There will also be sessions with tips on
tasty, healthy and budget friendly cook-
ing for one or for a family. Greta Kubis,
community nutritionist for Alberta Health
Services, will provide the tips.
The second program being offered s
a mentorship program to help support
young families or new moms through
the Growing Opportunities Program, of
which the Wheatland Food Bank is a sup-
porter.
“Our plan is to have group sessions to
start with, maybe four times just to have
mentors and families get to know each
other, and then maybe the one on one will
happen after that,” said MacKay.
“Because there are so many families that
don’t have close families around (it’s) just
to have someone to ask the questions.”
It will be up to the volunteer and the
family to decide when works best for their
schedules. By having seniors volunteer
their skills and experiences with parent-
ing families it will help empower them,
while engaging them in an activity they
will see growth from. It will be similar
to adopting a new member to the family.
MacKay is the supervisor for this program.
Betty-Anne Murphy, volunteer coordina-
tor said they are also talking about trying
to set up a website. It would be for dif-
ferent social agencies within Strathmore
to post job descriptions for volunteers
55 plus. The volunteers would be able to
make an application through it and the
website would also host an event board as
to what different agencies are doing.

pening with the Growing Families Society
and the new initiatives, contact either May
Rostecki-Budzey 403-361-7216, or Jea-

to go to council for review
Shannon LeClair
Times Reporter
The third and final open house
for the Wheatland County Region-
al Growth Management Study,
RGMS, took place on March 9,
with Jagdev Shahi from Dillon
Consulting making the presenta-
tion. Dillon Consulting has been
working with the county to de-
velop the RGMS as a tool to help
guide future development within
the county. Reeve of Wheatland
County Ben Armstrong was avail-
able for comments on what the
RGMS means to council.
“It’s a tool, it’s a study and it’s
telling…where things can happen,
where the growth is, where the
pressures are and some sugges-
tions on how to handle that pres-
sure,” said Armstrong.
The county will now take the
information provided by the study
and will look into the Municipal
Development Plan, MDP. If any of
the suggestions from the RGMS
are used, they will be implement-
ed into the MDP. The purpose of
having an RGMS is to help develop
a framework, which consists of a
vision, regional goals and policies
to outline growth locations within
the county. The RGMS is outlining
what they project will happen in
Wheatland County over the next
40 years. While it is a guideline,
it’s not something being imple-
mented immediately into the MDP.
“We can’t look at each develop-
ment in isolation. We have to look
at them as part of a whole,” said
Armstrong.
“If you look at each one individ-
ually, pretty soon you don’t have
one individual on there, you’ve got
300. That makes one big one, and
uh oh we should have had this in
place so that this didn’t happen.
Usually that shouldn’t happen if
you look at it as a whole.”
He said there are pressures from
the bigger centres, cities, to have
people move out into rural areas.
“Every time somebody moves
into an agricultural area there’s
causes and effects on both sides
and we like to say we are a agri-
cultural municipality and we sup-
port agriculture. We better take a
good hard look when we allow
development, how it affects agri-
culture,” said Armstrong.
One concern was whether a
higher level of government would
be able to trump the Wheatland
County RGMS.

Renowned reverend to come to Hope church

Shannon LeClair
Times Reporter
Author of ‘Turning Point:
Breakthrough Prayers,’ Rev-
erend Joseph A Dodjro will
be at the Hope Community
Church on Sunday March 20
for a book signing. Dodjro
has been in Canada spread-
ing the message for the past
22 years and said his book is
based on first hand experi-
ence finding the right prayer.
“It is actually based on
17 years of work among
Evangelical Christians and
working with them through
their times of need in spiri-
tual needs, when they need
prayer, help to go to some
personal issues,” said Dodjro.
“It started really into my
adult life and so having ob-
served all the men of God
working under them and
then, eventually, (I) began to
discover this gift… and then
they begin to ask me to pray
for people.”
Over the past 17 years
Dodjro has held spiritual
warfare prayer workshops,
prophetic intercessions, re-
vival meetings, and healing
crusades, and many other
different spiritual meetings
to help those people look-
ing for their personal break-
through prayer.
“Some will say ‘I don’t
know how to pray’ and some
will say ‘I don’t really have
the courage to pray’ or when
‘I pray what should I say?,”
said Dodjro.
He believes by using
prayers offered in his book
it will empower people and
turn them into their own
minister. Dodjro said the
book is a kind of do-it-your-
self workshop. He has seen
first hand people achieving
their personal goals after
finding the right prayer for
them. His goal is to reach
even further to help people
find their spiritual connec-
tion through his book.
“Having used these prayer
points for close to two de-
cades, having seen believ-
ers receive deliverance each
time I am led by the Holy
Spirit to pray these prayers
over born again Christians,
I determined that it is time
to make them available to a
much wider audience,” said
Dodjro.
The book signing begins
right after regular church
services at the Hope Com-
munity Church, from 12 until
1:30 p.m.

Eat before shopping – One of the easiest

and best tips to saving money while grocery
shopping is to eat first. If you shop while hungry,
you will be grabbing anything that tempts you
but if you shop on a full stomach, you will be
more likely to just get what you need. There is
something about being stuffed that makes you
not even look at food. Not only will you save a
lot of money but also, you will be in and out of
the store much faster.

Make a list before shopping and stick to it –

Another good way to save money is to make a
list and only purchase what’s on your list. Look
through some cookbooks prior to shopping and
make up some menu’s, this makes it easier to
stick to your list. Often, going grocery shopping
without one can cause you to grab whatever
looks good, and a list will help you resist those
‘impulse buys’ that you don’t really need.

Look through weekly flyers – Picking up

everything at one store can often cost a lot more

Budget 2011 - The Next Phase of Canada’s Economic Action Plan

Kevin Sorenson, M.P., Crowfoot
Parliamentary Report
Tuesday March 22 is the day that our Conser-
vative government will unveil Budget 2011 - the
Next Phase of Canada’s Economic Action Plan. We
know that Prime Minister Harper is focused on
keeping Canada’s economy growing and creating
jobs for hard-working Canadians.
“As we transition to the next phase of Canada’s
Economic Action Plan, measures in this budget
will focus on the Harper Government’s key prior-
ity of the economy,” says Finance Minister Jim Fla-
herty. “We will continue to encourage growth and
carefully manage government spending in order
to balance the budget in the medium term.”
Budget 2009, was our government’s plan to
combat the effects of the global economic crisis
that was about to reach Canadian shores. In the
lead-up to that budget, our government embarked
on the largest-ever pre-budget consultation pro-
cess in Canadian history. As the government, we
needed to hear from all the business sectors of
Canada’s economy, all regions of our nation, all in-
dustries, organizations and individuals. We need-
ed everyone to advise the federal government on
what it would take to stare-down the coming eco-
nomic recession.

we can be proud of our efforts throughout this
process. During the past few years, I have held
numerous Town Hall Meetings; satellite Constitu-

RCMP Briefs
Herbal Magic building collision
During the evening of Sunday, March 13, at around 11
p.m., a loud crash was heard from around the area of the
Chestermere Herbal Magic store from within a neighboring
business. Store employees from this neighboring business
went outside and noted significant damage to the front of
the Herbal Magic store consistent with a vehicle collision. At
that time, a light grey sedan was noted driving away from the
Herbal Magic store.
There were a number of skid marks consistent with a ve-
hicle driving erratically in the parking lot. It is assumed the
driver of the small grey car was stunting in the parking lot
and lost control crashing into the Herbal Magic store. Based
on the damage to the store, the suspect vehicle should have
considerable damages.
If anyone has any information in this crime or any other
please contact the Chestermere RCMP at (403) 207-8777
or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or through the inter-
recovery of stolen property or seizure of illegal drugs. Crime
Stoppers does not subscribe to call display and the identity
of the caller will remain anonymous.
Hit and run collision on Highway
At approximately 10:30 p.m. on March 14, the Chester-
mere RCMP and Fire Services were dispatched to an injury
collision on Highway 1A just east of Rainbow Road. It was
determined that an eastbound Dodge Caravan had crossed
the center line and struck the driver’s side of an oncoming
westbound silver Chrysler Intrepid. The 17-year-old female
driving the Intrepid was transported to hospital with non-life
threatening injuries. The driver of the Dodge Caravan fled the
scene on foot before police arrived. RCMP Police Dog Ser-
vices attended but were unable to locate the driver.
The driver is described as a 40-50 year old Caucasian
male standing around 5’9” tall and weighing approximately
170 pounds. He was wearing a dark hat, dark clothing and

2011 Showcase held at Strathmore High School on March 12.

Pirouettes, popping and shuf-
fle-ball-steps were just some
of the moves on display at the
Expressions the Dance Gallery
(EDG) 2011 Showcase held at
Strathmore’s High School March
12.
Forty-one energetic and tal-
ented dancers ranging in age
from pre-school to teenagers per-
formed in a variety of genres in-
cluding ballet, jazz, contemporary
and hip-hop to the two packed
performances. Their high energy
and elaborate presentations were
proof of the hours and effort of
practice.
The routines were designed by
the dance company’s seven cho-
reographers, four of whom are
former students who have moved
into the teaching roles. These
choreographers put together 59
competition pieces and the danc-
ers will start their competitions at
the end of March through to May
in Calgary, Red Deer and Banff.
In addition to the local danc-
ers, the showcase featured guest
performer Robin Szuch from
High Strung in Calgary, who per-
formed an aerial dance on a hoop
hung from ropes in the theatre.
In a style similar to Cirque du So-
leil, Szuch’s performance demon-
strated a combination of strength
and grace, which she made look
light and effortless in the air.
The youngest dancer of the

cently celebrated her fifth birth-
day, performed two solos, a ballet Electric and Jazz Contempo- commitment and schedule.

Holy Cross Collegiate, HCC, JV girls basketball zones were

of the weekend by almost 40 points and continued to hold
strong for the rest of the weekend. It was the final tourna-

selves as a winning team. The girls succeeded, taking first
place and bringing home the banner.
“We are very pleased as this is our school’s first zone
championship ever,” said Michael Annicchiarico, athletic di-
rector for HCC.
“The team was pretty calm about winning the banner.
They were disappointed to lose the league championship
to HTA the weekend before,” said JV girls coach Angela Ma-

Strathmore duo sparks Raiders

Mario Prusina
Times Editor
The Keystone Raiders concluded a
successful season in the Alberta Minor
Midget Hockey League this past week-
end, with the help of a pair of Strath-
more players.
Forward Connor McCallum and de-
fenceman Justin Kostiuk were key mem-
bers of the Chestermere-based squad,
which finished their campaign with a
showing at the Sutter Cup March 10-13
in Calgary.
Both players brought something to
the table, which head coach Sean Finn
appreciated during the course of the
season.
“Connor had a tough year – he spent
a lot of time injured early in the year,
but he comes out and bring a lot of skill
to the table,” said Finn of McCallum. “He
is a smaller guy that will grow into the
game, but he has great heart and is a
good kid.”
Meanwhile, Kostiuk provides some-
thing every good hockey team covets.
“Justin is a good all-round defence-
man – he has a lot of good offensive
upside, he’s really strong defensively,
a strong kid physically and he skates
quite well,” said the coach. “He’s a really
important element on our team on the
backend, for sure.”
It was a satisfying year for most of the
Raiders players, especially those who
played triple-A bantam in Okotoks the
season before, where the team did not
win one game.
That includes Kostiuk, who was
thrilled with this year’s Raider cam-
paign.
“Especially considering what hap-
pened to most of the team from last
year, going to a season like this, you
couldn’t ask for anything better,” said
Kostiuk, who hopes to make the UFA
Bisons next season. “I reached all the
goals I set out at the start of the sea-
son – and the team goal of winning and
making the Sutter Cup.”
McCallum echoed those same
thoughts.
“You appreciate winning after last
year,” smiled McCallum. “It was some-
thing we had to leave behind us. I feel
like I became a better player (being on)
this team.
“I like to be known as a playmaker,
but you have to (accept) your role and
keep doing what’s best for the team.”
Tough go at Sutter Cup
After a 17-10-5 regular season record,
the Raiders finished the campaign by
locking up second place in their di-
vision. With its great play, the team
earned the right to take part in the Sut-
ter Cup this past weekend at the Max
Bell Centre.
Unfortunately, the team was ousted
after going 0-1-2 during the round robin
portion of the tournament.
“It’s a tough tournament – it comes
down to a lot of luck,” said Finn. “Only
one of the top four teams (in the regular
season) is moving on to the semifinals,
so it’s a tough go.”
The Raiders lost a 3-2 heartbreaker
in their first game versus the Medicine
Hat Hockey Hounds, before tying the
NWCAA Stampeders 2-2 and CRAA Blue
Royals 3-3. With only four out of 12
teams moving on to the tournament’s
playoffs, there is fine line between win-
ning and losing.
“You look at our first game … we
lose off of a bounce from a puck that
came from behind the net, off the goal-
ie’s back and in the net. That’s what
it comes down to,” said Finn. “In the
end, you have to play your best hock-
ey when it matters and a lot of our big
guys didn’t show up when we needed
them to. Our top scorers were pretty
much held scoreless for five periods of
hockey. That’s not going to cut it at (this
tournament).”

The Strathmore Rockies 2010-2011

season officially ended Sunday night
against the Edmonton Chimos. The girls
played a double header against their ri-
vals from the north, with both games
being held at the Strathmore Family
Centre.
The Rockies struggled with injuries
over the weekend, with ten players
left off the active roster. However, that
didn’t stop the girls from having a thrill-
ing weekend. Saturday’s game was hard
fought but the Rockies lost with a final
score of 3-0.
Sunday was women’s hockey at its
finest. After a tight first period the score
was 1-0 for the Chimos. The Rockies
got into a bit of penalty trouble and two
of the Chimo’s four goals were on the
wheatland inn strathmore power play. At the end of the second
the Chimos led 3-1.
Friday, march 18 • 10 am - 4:30 pm The Rockies battled back in the third

one from Danielle Boyce in the final
minutes of the game. It was a thrilling
period, though the Rockies could not

score the tying goal. The game ended
4-3 for the Chimos. Goalie Lundy Day
had a wonderful outing stopping 30 of
the Chimo’s 34 shots.
“It was a tough season for everyone,”
said Rockies captain Kaley Herman after
the game. “We only played three games
before Christmas so it was a challenge.
Also, playing with only two lines for
the majority of the season didn’t help
things. But after Christmas I think we
really started to jell as a team. We put in
the effort and finished strong.”
Stay tuned for exciting news about
the WWHL and the Rockies in the com-
ing months. The Minnesota Whitecaps
will represent the WWHL at the Clark-
son Cup in Barrie, Ont. March 24 to 27.
The finals will be broadcast on TSN.

Holidays on ice

“Holidays on Ice” was the theme for the Standard Skate

Club’s annual carnival, which featured over 35 skaters last
Friday at the Standard/Rosebud Arena.
There was plenty of activity behind the scenes with excited
kids, and parents rushing around to get their children in the
right costumes for specific pieces, as well as Sonya Koustrup
who was overseeing her eighth carnival as the club’s coach.
On the ice the crowd was treated to a range of performanc-
es. The littlest ones aged 4-5 walked on the ice. Some had a

Times Reporter
‘Snoopy’s skate-tastic ad-
venture’ was put on by the
Strathmore Skate Club for
their annual carnival. The
carnival took place March
13, and Snoopy and Wood-
stock went on an adventure
to different countries. They
travelled all over the world
during the first act, going
to places such as Egypt and
Japan. In the second act
Snoopy and the Red Baron
had a mini battle in which
the Red Baron booby-
trapped the doghouse, mak-
ing it into a time machine.
They travelled through time,
seeing a variety of different
events, both in the future
and the past, before return-
ing home.
“It’s just to showcase the
skaters so that they can show
off their skills to their fam-
ily and friends. It’s to show
their achievements, what
they have accomplished for
the year,” said organizer Le-
anne Woodcock.
There was a King and
Queen for the carnival - the
queen was Rebecca Faulks,
and Jaxon Campbell was
the king. Brenda Lochhead
sewed costumes for 96 skat-
ers. The Calgary Synchro-
nized Skating Club came

Ice Creams
take part final
weekend
tourney
Mel Boschee
Strathmore Ice Creamers
Well this past weekend brought the rin-
gette to a close for our Strathmore Ice
Creams. Saturday took us to Indus where
the girls played their final three games
of the season. We left town with a 2-1
record, but fun, exciting, nail-biting was
pivotal for the weekend.
Our first game was against Airdrie
Whiteout at a bright and early Saturday 8
a.m. morning! Didn’t I tell you last week
we were a morning team? Well morn-
ing we are. The Ice Creams stepped out
on the ice as Saturday was a new day.
They were excited the game was about
to begin. As they stepped out on the
ice the excitement was on their faces!
They checked, they passed, they played
a strong defensive game and in the end,
the score was 9-3 for the Ice Creams!
The second game was still a morning
game, and this game too was absolutely
phenomenal. The Ice Creams were taking
on the hometown Indus Lightning and
they knew it would be challenging. It was
extremely exciting for the fans and even
more exciting for the team and coaches.
The game was back and forth the whole
time and in the last two minutes, the Ice
Creams pulled their goalie. There were
four goals scored within the last two min-
utes, but it was not quite enough time
to catch up to Indus. The Ice Creams fell
to a 8-7 loss but their spirits were still
high and they know they played amaz-
ing. There was one more game left and
that was an afternoon game.
The afternoon game brought the Ice
Creams up against the Rockyford Ring-
ers. It was full of strong defense with the
first goal of the game not coming until
11:37 in the first period. With every goal
there was response by the opposing team
with a goal of their own. The Ice Creams
were ready to show their skills from
the year, and to make sure the fans and
coaches knew they were an “anytime” of
the day team, not just a morning team.
Their drive was strong from the time
they stepped on the ice. The passion for
the game was shining through. The Ice
Creams left the ice with a 12-5 victory.
Our super goaltenders for the weekend
were Jaden Tashlikowich and McKenna
Blades. The Ice Cream’s goal scorers for
the weekend were: Cayley Boschee, Abby
Hilton, Ainsley Olson, Abbey Bratt, Em-
ily Bailie, Jaidyn Eitzen, Daylen Wathen,
Shelby Lane and Jaden Tashlikowich.
Our super defensive/offensive team who
opened up the chances for our scorers
were: Brooklyn Reinhart, Payton Jensen,
McKenna Blades and Meghan Munchrath.
That wraps it up for the year. You girls
were all super stars each and every time
you stepped on the ice. You played hard,
you played to win and most of all you
had oodles of fun. The parents would like
to thank the coaching staff who dedicat-
ed their time to the success of the team.
Lana Lane, Guy Bailie, Vince Olson and
Stirling Hilton - you were the centre of
this team, and we appreciate all the time
you spent to make every one of the girl’s
smile !
Strathmore Ice Creams Ringette sea-
son is now closing. It was a fantastic year
and next year is not too far away. Couple
windup parties and this one goes down
in the history books … successful, fun
year! Thank you all!
