Picture Day – Friday, December 10

Picture day is Friday, December 10, 2021.  Face-to-Face learners will have their picture taken during the school day.   Families of remote learners will have their photo session at the end of the school day on December 10.  Remote families will receive an email with information about arrival times and safety protocols.

Warm in Winter Drive/Food Drive

This is the last week to donate items for both our Warm in Winter Drive and our Food Drive.  Thank you to families that have donated new winter hats, mitts, scarves and gloves and/or  non-perishable food items (canned food, pasta, etc.) for families in need. Both drives will be ending this Friday. 

Winter Clothing

Please ensure that your child/children are coming to school dressed appropriately for the weather (hats, mitts/gloves, boots, winter coats, snow pants, etc.,).  They should also have a pair of indoor shoes and a change of clothes, including extra socks. Please remember to label all items.

Inclement Weather

When an inclement weather day is declared, all elementary and secondary schools will be closed to students.  Please have alternate childcare arrangements planned for inclement weather days. All student learning will be remote and asynchronous. School closures will be announced by 6:00 a.m. and information will be communicated through:

Fundraising

This year we are fundraising to support the following initiatives:

  • Technology- purchasing more iPads and Chromebooks for students 
  • Literacy- investing in diverse books and levelled books to support guided reading
  • Well Being- indoor recess activities and more outdoor recess equipment 

Since we are limited with the type of fundraising we can engage in,  we are asking that families consider making a donation through School Cash Online.  The donations collected will go directly to supporting our students this year. Donations of $20 or more are fully tax-deductible and receipts will be provided through School Cash Online.  

All amounts are greatly appreciated. Thank you for your ongoing support!
