Back to School - September 2026
It is our hope you had a wonderful summer break and were able to enjoy some time with family and friends. With every start of the school year there is excitement and of course some worry about how the first day of school will go. Here is some information to help you and your child(children) have the best day of school:
Every student should recieve an email from your homeroom teaacher a day or two before we start school. Your homeroom teacher will let you know which room you will go to on your first day. So make sure you check your email.
As for school supplies, for now a binder with some paper and a pen/pencil is all you need.
This year we are so happy to have the NS Lunch Program so make sure you have logged on and ordered your meals.
All students will go directly to their homeroom the first day of school. We will have grade level assemblies after we all get settled after busses arrive.
If you are looking for a course change, your homeroom teacher will have the forms. Please do not go directly to guidance until they call you down.
As we get closer to Sept. 3rd, please check out our Instagram page for more info.
The school is still quite warm so bring a water bottle as we have water refill stations.
We look forward to seeing you!
Ms. Urquhart, Mr. Murchison, Ms. McPhail
