PARENT-TEACHER INTERVIEWS

Parent-teacher interviews will be taking place on April 13th and April 14th. Like our last conferences, the meetings will occur virtually. You can book your time slot by clicking here! I look forward to chatting with you :)

SPRING BREAK

Spring break is March 26th-April 5th, and includes a PD Day on April 6th. Students are back in class on April 7th.

VALENTINE'S DAY

  • Students are welcome to bring in Valentine cards for their classmates. Students must have the cards at the school by Monday, February 8th, and they must be in a sealed ziplock bag, due to Covid. Students are also not permitted to bring in treats/chocolates etc. under any circumstances. Sorry :(

  • A class list can be found by clicking here

FEBRUARY 12th is a PD Day, no school for students.

MATH CLUB:

Beginning Wednesday, January 20th, students are welcome to stay in at Lunch recess every Wednesday for extra math support. This will allow reinforcement of the week's lessons where students may be struggling, or they may simply come to play math games focused on building numerical fluency (basic facts practice etc). This is strictly voluntary, but I am hoping that students who find math challenging will join us for extra support and encouragement.
