A Note from Ms. Mallett: Admin Extraordinaire

PTS Conferences
Just a reminder of our upcoming Parent/Teacher/Student conferences to be held this Thursday and Friday.  Please plan to attend with your child to discuss their progress to date and any concerns you may have. Success happens when home and school are working together.

There is an early dismissal at 12:25 p.m. on Thursday and no school for students on Thursday afternoon or all day on Friday.

Interviews take place in the gym with a drop in (no appointment) format. 

            Thursday: 1:30 p.m. – 3:50 p.m
                            5:00 p.m. – 7:50 p.m.
            Friday:      9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Results Report cards
Results reporting for Citizenship, Personal Development, and Character were sent home with all students on Monday. This first report represents student voice - where they see their strengths and where they identify areas for growth this year. We will be working as a team to support their goals. Our first full report card will be sent home February 4th. A reminder students should always be on top of their marks in each class through the regular updates emailed home each month. There is still time to complete those missing assignments.  

Book Sale
Wilma Hansen library will be featuring a book sale during our PTS conferences.  Our library assistant has put together a collection of titles at great prices that will be of interest to our students.  This is a great opportunity for some early Christmas Shopping.

Grade 9 Farewell Fundraiser
Our Grade 9 students are fundraising to help off-set the cost of a year end function.  They are selling cookie, brownie and soup mix jars through The Mixing Spoon.  These make great Christmas or hostess gifts.  Please talk to any grade 9 student or call our office for order forms. There will also be a table set-up at conferences for you to place your orders.  Our grade 9 students thank you for your support!
