Dear Families,
I hope you are all doing well.
I wanted to address a rumour that is currently circulating in our school regarding Covid-19 cases. We currently have ZERO confirmed cases in our school. As per the protocols, if we receive confirmation of a positive case, we will inform our community immediately. Please speak to your children about this and reassure them that we are following all the correct procedures.
This email is also an invitation to our upcoming Annual General Assembly on Wednesday September 23rd at 6:30pm. At this virtual meeting, we will be electing the members of our Governing Board for the 2020-2021 school year. If you are interested in attending, you must RSVP in advance.
For Symmes parents, please RSVP by email to: symmesaga@gmail.com For D’Arcy parents, please RSVP by email to: darcyaga@gmail.com
In order to ensure a safe virtual meeting, the following information is required with your RSVP:
- Your full name
- Your child’s full name
- Your child’s grade level
- You can put all of this in the subject line of the email
For proper voting procedures, if there are 2 parents in one household that wish to attend the meeting, they are both entitled to a vote. It would be best if each parent sent a separate RSVP and attended the virtual meeting on separate devices. Please let us know if that is not possible.
The deadline to submit your RSVP is Monday September 21st at 4pm.
We will send out a link to the virtual meeting once all of the RSVPs have been collected.
If you would like to nominate someone to sit on our Governing Board, please include the full name of the individual as well as the name of the child they represent in the RSVP. Being a part of the school’s Governing Board is a great way to get involved in school governance and to have a voice.
If you would like to put your name forward to the School Board as a possible representative for the Special Education Advisory Committee (SEAC) please let me know.
Take care,
Tara Laine, Principal
