Thank you to Mr.Spruin who coached our Senior Girls Basketball team during our tournament, and also to Dr. de Braga and the Senior Boys Volleyball team for hosting the volleyball tournament on Wednesday.

The week of November 19th....

All grade 3 students will receive information regarding the application process for the grade 4 Middle French Immersion and Junior Extended French program. As soon as they arrive at the school, we will be sending them to you, but you can also log on to www.tdsb.on.ca/pars for further information.

Next week, it seems we have a "slower" week, although we always seem to be busy at LKS! Many of the students, especially the intermediates are finishing projects and assignments and teachers are completing the first term report card writing process. Report cards will go home on the 28th and interviews will be the 29th (evening) and 30th (day). Most teachers are also interviewing other times as well.

We also had our grade 8 parent night this week. Important information/booklets should be coming home over the next few weeks regarding secondary school open houses. Please look for them as they will provide information necessary for you and your child to have when determining where they will be attending school next year.

I'd also like to thank all the parents who have volunteered to be on committees this year. We value the amount of work that goes into organizing the many things that make

Parent Teacher Interviews/Report Cards

Parent Teacher Interview Letters will be sent home over the next week. Please complete and return back to the homeroom teacher before the 14th. Teachers will be meeting late next week to collaborate on common interviews for parents with more than one child in the school. Just a reminder that report cards will be sent home on November 28th.

Thank you for not parking in the Bus Zone. Drop-off and pick-up times have been much smoother and safer this week!
