The Calgary Board of Education says its Indigenous students are falling through the cracks.
At the public board meeting Tuesday, trustees voted to accept a report from administration stating that when it comes to the academic success of CBE students, reasonable progress is being made toward desired goals.
And for the fifth straight year trustees voted to accept those results with the exception of student outcomes for Indigenous students — which have been classified as "very low."
