Smile everyone-it's picture day!
Thank you to all of the parents who attended our first Parent Council meeting on Monday night. A special welcome was made from our current Co-Chairs, Mrs. Fuda and Mrs. Kidd, followed by a brief introduction of the budget and committee goals. I believe you will be receiving the minutes and a link to the new website.
I received last Sprng's CTBS (Canadian Test of Basic Skill) results for our grade 3-8 students. For those who are new, this is a standardized test that our grade 3-8 students write. In addition to the EQAO results, report card marks and teacher diagnostics, the CTBS provides staff more information about their students. Normally we send home the individual results but this has been delayed to the Work to Rule.
Overall, the students did very well. Grade Equivalents are shown per grade for Reading, Language and Mathematics respectively:
Grade 3: 5-1, 5-1, 5-0
Grade 4: 6-7, 7-0, 7-4
Grade 5: 8-2, 8-8, 8-6
Grade 6: 8-8, 11-1, 10-2
Grade 7: 9-6, 11-4, 11-9
Grade 8: 11-8, 12-3, 13-2
Looking forward to our pizza lunch and Terry Fox Run tomorrow.
