Northland presents on data-driven change at College of Alberta School Superintendents learning conference
Posted on March 20

Cal Johnson, Superintendent of Schools/CEO leading Northland School Division's presentation at CASS on March 19, 2025.
Northland School Division was invited to present at the College of Alberta School Superintendents (CASS) Annual Learning Conference, held March 19-21, 2025. Northland joined two other school divisions to discuss “Effective change leadership using system data.”
The presentation highlighted the process behind developing Northland’s new education plan—one built through meaningful engagement with students, families, Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and communities. By hosting listening sessions, gathering What We Heard reports, and analyzing local and provincial data, Northland created a plan that reflects the needs of Northland students and communities.
With the new education plan in place, Annual Education Results Report (AERR) data helps track progress and guide improvements, making system-wide changes based on evidence and community feedback.
Northland was proud to share this journey and learn from education leaders across Alberta.
