    Principal Laine’s Weekly Newsletter Dec. 14,2020

    Dear Families,

    I hope you are doing well.

    Here is some information for this week:

    Covid-19 Update

    • We currently have ZERO active cases of Covid-19 in our school

    Distance Learning

    • On December 17th & 18th all students will be learning from home
    • Students will continue to follow their regular timetable from home
    • December 17th is DAY 8 and December 19th is DAY 9
    • Classes will start on time and attendance will be taken
    • Students should log onto to their MS Teams platform in the morning and wait for instructions from their teacher

    Desk Cleanout

    • We are encouraging all students to completely clean out their desks prior to their last physical day in school before the winter break
    • This will allow our caretakers to thoroughly clean and disinfect before students return
    • This will also help to ensure that students have everything they need for remote learning during the week of January 5th
    • We will be asking students to bring home as many things as they can on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week

    Student Voice

    • Please see the attachment from the LCEEQ (Leadership Committee for English Education in Quebec)
    • LCEEQ is offering a $400 prize for students who want to enter the contest
    • Students need to answer the question: “Which global issue touches my life & what can I do about it?”
    • We are encouraging our students to use their voices and enter the contest

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    Tara Laine

    Principal
