Weekly Update - January 20th

Good Afternoon,

 

This week we have been very busy getting back into the groove with student learning and we are excited more students are in attendance this week.  The importance of attendance especially during this difficult time is paramount for children’s mental health and learning outcomes.  There is still a concern around consistent attendance in our classrooms.  We completely understand that some parents are still concerned regarding the Omicron Variant and we are here to support all our families in making decisions that makes sense for them.  The school wants all families to know that the best way forward is to reach out to your child’s teacher to discuss your concerns.  We want to encourage all those families who are having a difficult time right now accessing the school for a variety of reasons to reach out and let’s chat about a plan that works for everyone involved, especially our kids. 

 

I would also like to remind parents that all of our Term 1 Report Cards have now been uploaded to the MyEd Parent Portal. Please find instructions below to access your child's report card if you have not done so already.
