A Note of Thanks
It's hard to believe that we are sending our final Community Newsletter for the 2023-2024 school year. We would like to take the opportunity to thank our parents/guardians for their support over the course of this year. We have connected with many of you for various reasons and we are incredibly appreciative of the commitment you've shown to our students and our school. Many of you have volunteered in a number of capacities and we cannot thank you enough for the time and effort you put in to providing our students with valuable experiences that extend beyond the walls of our classrooms. To the parents/guardians of our graduating students - we wish you and your children all the best in the years ahead and we look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at the Class of 2024 graduation ceremony in December. To the parents/guardians of our grade 10 and 11 students - we hope you have a wonderful summer and we look forward to re-connecting with you all in September.
Last Day With Students
Our last day with students will be on Thursday, June 20th and will involve a variety of activities, including a BBQ. Report cards will be given out around 12:00PM and students will be dismissed at 1:00PM.
Communication from RCMP/RNC
We have shared communication from the RNC and RCMP with families. The messages are focused on the potential dangerous of "field parties" and "senior scavenger hunts/lists". If you have not received these emails, please let us know.
