Friday, May 2, 2014

It's been a busy week at LKS! The construction in Mrs. Burn's class is almost complete and we are hoping to move the class back in a week or so. The LKS Before and After Program is busy planning with the Board to open a program in September for our kindergarten students next year. 

As you may know, our school staffing committee has completed our class organization for next year. The following is a summary of the organization: Kindergarten (4 classes), Grade One (3 classes), One/Two Combined (1 class), Grade 2 (2 classes), Two/Three Combined (2 classes), Grade 3 (2 Classes), Three/Four Combined (1 class), Grade 4 (2), Grade 5 (2 classes), Grade Six (3 classes), Grade 7 (2 classes), Grade 8 (2 classes). We have also been allocated 2.5 special education teachers (cut by .5 staff) and a .5 ESL teacher. 

Continuing with our planning, we have also posted our 2014/2015 Day Schedule on the website. We have not received the School Calendar yet, but we will post it upon arrival. 

This week we practiced our Spring Lockdown. Just a reminder that if we ever were in a real "Evacuation", we would go to Lambton-Kingsway church. We'd send an email through our grade parent network for pick up details etc. 

We've had a great week of learning. Here are a few pics demonstrating the students' work!
