First Week Back!

Do you believe we only have approximately 7 weeks of school before the next report card goes home? For that reason, we will continue to keep focused on completing our curriculum units and keep the students fully engaged. Please remember that second term parent teacher interviews are reserved for students that present a concern to the teacher.

Kindergarten registration is on February 10th and 11th. Please call the school at 416-394-7890 after January 14th to book an appointment.

Family Literacy Day is on January 27th and LKS will be recognizing this day with a visit from Cheryl Thorton. Ms. Thorton will be sharing a variety of stories with the students. Thank you to Mrs. Taylor, a parent, and the Parent Council Literacy Committee for organizing the Olympic display in the front case.
