It’s a course students MUST take to graduate from high school in Alberta, but is it helping kids at all?

According to the Alberta Education website, the purpose of CALM (Career and Life Management) is to help students make well-informed life decisions, and to “develop behaviours and attitudes that contribute to the well-being and respect of self and others, now and in the future.” However, most people -even teachers say it’s a waste of time. Currently, Alberta Education is in the first year of a six-year curriculum review of all subjects, noting that the review is particularly needed for CALM. (Photo: Risk Management)
