We had such a great time at Springfest. I'd like to take this time to acknowledge the parents who were on the committees:
LKS Springfest 2012 Committee Members : Silent Auction: Stephen Montano, Alexa Murphy, Dee Shepherd, Jessica Nash, Karen Dockrill, Lisa Jones, Pearse DolanSara Beveridge: Games: Greg Albrecht (co-chair), Greg Cunningham (co-chair), David James, Jeanette Gallagher; Tombola: Jody Greifenberger (chair), Dianne Quintal, Jenn Abbott, Joan Dawson, Jocelyne Johnston, Kristi Karens, Nori Ayer; Food: Leslie Thomas (chair), Barb Busch, Bernadette Saumur, Jill Whelan, Kathryn Owen, Milena Forte; Communication: Sheryl Macdonald; Volunteers: Sarah Olynick (please let me know if I missed anyone)!

Mr. Samotowka would like to remind you of our Grade 6-8 Concert that will be held on Monday, June 4th at 7 p.m. Students are to arrive for warm up and tuning at 6:15 p.m. The students are to dress in "concert dress"; white dress tops and black dress bottoms - no jeans or t-shirts. Thank you.

Our teachers are wrapping up some third term assessments. We have just completed our grade 3-8 Canadian Test of Basic Skills and some reading assessments from K-8. These assessments are one piece that we look at when analyzing our students' achievements. Our grade 3 and 6 students will be writing the Provincial EQAO assessment in a couple of weeks.

We have finalized our year calendar for 2012/2013 indicating the days of the cycle and the grade 6-8 instrumental days. It is on our website (located on the sidebar).

Have a relaxing long weekend!
