First Week of April


For those of you who are interested, the 2010-2011 calendar has been published and can be found on our website and the TDSB website. Please remember the calendar is draft and is pending Ministry approval. We will post the final calendar when it is published from the Board.

It looks like April will continue to be a busy month. We are really looking forward to the school play, 'Beauty and the Beast' and the Parent Council Fundraising Gala. Both should be prove to be great for our community spirit! Beauty and Beast tickets will be on sale next week before and after school.

As part of the process to improve parent engagement, a Parent Satisfaction Survey is being conducted across the TDSB. This is an opportunity for parents to provide feedback about our schools. The survey will be available online only in 22 languages
beginning on Tuesday April 6 and can be accessed at: www.tdsb.on.ca/parentsurvey.

I hope you have a great long weekend.
