Once again, it's been a wonderful week at LKS. The weather has been terrific and the students are enjoying the last bit of warm weather.
We hope to see you next Thursday for Curriculum Night. Times should be posted on teacher blogs/emails or websites and there is a schedule under "Notices" on the website. Please come to meet the LKS staff and be introduced (or reintroduced) to the year's curriculum.
Over the next two weeks, the students will be busy collecting for our annual Terry Fox Run and Seeds of Hope; two very important initiatives in the school that remind us of the importance of giving back to the community (local and international). On our website, you will also find a letter under "Notices" from the TDSB sharing information on the "Disaster Relief in East Africa". Our thoughts go out to our families in the community who have been affected by these events also.
