A move towards outcomes-based reporting from the traditional ways of assessinig students has a local mom concerned about the future of the local education system.

Mortlach-area mom Jan Nelson wants to make sure other local parents know about the shift and she's hoping to spark the conversation.

Student evaluation and achievement are at the heart of the matter and for Jan, she's not sure how she's going to be able to gauge that under the new system.

Nelson has been in touch with the local Prairie South School Division and the lines of communication are open but she wants other local parents to know what she's learned.  That's why she reached out to us.
