Congratulations to this weeks Student of Week winners!
We celebrated a number of other items at our assembly this past Friday. Mr. Henderson passed out the remainder of the Cross Country awards. Pastor Gil came out to collect the Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes. Thank you so much to the parents, students and staff who collectively filled 92 shoe boxes this year. Ryce won the draw to have his shoe box personally delivered to a child in Nicaragua by Pastor Gil.

Report Cards and Reporting to Parents:
Report Cards will be formally handed out two times this year. At the end of January and the end of June. As you know we already had one formal set of interviews in the fall and we will have student led conferences in the spring. Parents will have the opportunity to book individual appointments in the spring as well if either the parent or teacher feels a one on one conference is needed. Parents are able to email or call teachers any time throughout the year to sit and discuss the progress of their child. All curriculum reporting is done through the blogs on a weekly basis and will be summarized on the report cards as well.
We are currently in the process of building a consistent template for all of our grade 1-4 students. The teachers will work together through the draft on our December PD day and the templates will be ready for our report cards at the end of January.
School Board Visit:
Our school board will be visiting on Thursday, November 27 in the morning. Two representatives from each of our grade 4 classes will be taking them around on a tour.
Have a great week,
Thanks for the update :)
