Last Full Week!

Thank you to all the parents who came to our final Sharing Assemblies last week. The students were recognized for the character trait "Perseverance".

We also welcomed back our grade 8 staff and students from Quebec. They had a wonderful time together. We are looking forward to their graduation next Friday.

At this time of the year, the students have been completing a variety of summative assessments and evaluations. We just received the results back for our grade 3-8 CTBS-Canadian Test of Basic Skills. The students showed quite an improvement from the Fall compared to the Spring. Congratulations! (The results will be posted our the web under the data section).

Remember, final report cards will be sent home on June 28th. The 2010 staff will be listed on my blog next Friday in case you are interested.

Recently there has been another outbreak of lice. Even though we have a professional check the kids at the school on a regular basis, we still get cases. If your child gets lice, please remember to tell the school, shampoo and pick out all the nits. When your child returns, we recheck on a regular basis to make sure all the nits are gone. The kids cannot return with any nits. It may be a good idea to keep looking at home. Thank you.
