Daily Updates
Message to students from Mr. O'Connor
It is with mixed emotions that I am informing you that Jacqueline Lemieux, our guidance counselor's last day at St. George's will be May 17th this year. Jackie has earned a remarkable opportunity to pursue a passion within the the Royal Canadian Naval Reserves going into next year.
On one hand, our school community will miss very much her deep commitment toward supporting us in all areas of school life, and on the other, we must celebrate Jackie's decision to assume some risk, pursue a passion and model what it is to be a life long learner.
Rest assured, Jackie remains here as normal until May 17th. Following her departure, Jackie will play an important role in the transition to a new guidance counselor making sure you are all supported fully.
Jackie invites you to discuss any of this process further with her, and in the meantime, I wish to celebrate all that she does.
Wednesday was an amazing day for our badminton teams, congratulations to the following teams for your accomplishments!
