Dear Vanderhoof Families-
Thank you for all your support with ensuring our middle of the year assessment day was such a success. We are always so grateful for that time with students so that we can check their progress. Teacher’s will share more details once all of our assessments are complete and the data is available. Look for more information after break. Also, thank you to all the families who have donated to the Care Closet. I’m always blown away by the generosity of our community and the way we come together to support one another.
