School Start Up

I am pleased to report that the teachers have ratified their new contract and school will begin next week.
Monday will be a shortened day for students in grades 1-6. We will begin with a welcome assembly followed by some time in last year’s classroom.

Tentative Settlement

Report Cards

Please see below for the letter from Mr. Sloan explaining year end report cards. At this time there will be no report card generated due to the job action. When the strike action ends, student assessments will be reviewed and information will be shared with parents.

Hoodies and T-shirts

If you ordered a hoodie or t-shirt, they have arrived. Please contact Tammy Greer to arrange pick up. If you miss Tammy , any unclaimed orders will be left at the school later this week.

Personal Belongings

If you haven’t yet come to the school to pick up your child’s belongings, it would be a good idea to do so. If a settlement is reached, and students return to school teachers may ask for a return of some basic supplies to finish any tasks they are working on.
