Meet the Staff:
Our Meet the staff event will take place on Thursday, September 28th from 6pm-7pm. We are asking that all children attended be supervised by family members. The teachers will not be able to answer questions pertaining to individual student progress. After the Progress Report in November, parents will be invited to attend a scheduled interview.
National Day of Truth and Reconciliation (September 30):
At school we will be observing this day on Friday, September 29th. It is not a spirit day, but rather a somber day of remembrance and reflection. Staff and students may choose to wear orange shirts on Friday to observe this day.
