Welcome Back!

Welcome Back! We hope everyone enjoyed the days off. It is hard to believe that there are only 19 school days remaining until the holiday break. We are excited that Bill Harley will be joining us this week. Tomorrow (Tuesday), he will be with Grade 2 and Wednesday with Grade 4. On Thursday, he will be conducting the family night.

Student recognition committee

Thank you to our newly formed committee that met after school today and has begun the process of looking at recognition programs in our school. We have two students (Mandy and Carissa), two parents (Mrs. Swindle and Mrs. Shogam), three teachers (Mrs. Germano, Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Kuketz), Mrs. Valenti and Mr. Cateon. The ideas were flowing and it is very exciting. Stay tuned for updates as we will conduct a few more meetings that will decide how we move forward.
