Our Dolphins have been working hard since the first day of school! Please be sure to celebrate those successes and strengths on their progress reports tonight! A reminder of how each level correlates to marks:

• Progressing Very Well

Student achievement is meeting or surpassing the provincial standard.

(Letter grades B to A+ / Numerical grades 74 to 100)

• Progressing Well

Student achievement is approaching the provincial standard.

(Letter grades C to B- / Numerical grades 64 to 73)

• Progressing with Difficulty

Student achievement is not currently meeting the provincial standard.

(Letter grades R to C- / Numerical grades below 50 to 63)

Please find a link below to schedule an interview with your child's teacher if you would like to discuss the progress report further. Now, a word of caution: if a teacher isn't selected, the system has been known to automatically schedule with the first teacher listed alphabetically. And while Ms Acton is a wonderfully generous and kind educator, she might be a little overwhelmed if she ends up with everyone!

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Coding club is starting this Wednesday for any interested students in Grades 5-8! Students will meet in Mr. MacKay's room (upstairs, room 208) from 3:30-4:30pm. This club will meet every Wednesday for five weeks, from November 13th - December 11th. A big shout out to Mr. Petrillo and Mr. MacKay for making it all happen!

Mr. Frank's class joined 60 other classes virtually across the Thames Valley District School Board to work with microbits and learn how AI is helping us to create a more sustainable environment and help solve world hunger. Super cool!

Our Lost and Found is growing! Please encourage your child(ren) to visit the Lost and Found located outside of the office and take home anything that may belong to them.
