Important Information
Gala:
Tomorrow is the Gala! A BIG thank you for all of the generous bottle donations we received this week! The bottle game will be a huge success thanks to all of the donations.
Mite Boxes:
We have not received many mote boxes yet. Please remember to bring back your Mite boxes. All of the money you have collected will go towards supporting our seminarians.
Solar Eclipse:
On Monday, there will be a eclipse. In this part of Canada, it will only be a partial eclipse, with 27% of the sun covered. We have been asked by our superintendents’ office to keep students in between 10:30am and 12:30pm as we do not have special glasses for our students to view the eclipse. Teachers will be livestreaming the eclipse in their classrooms, and we will have a 10:15am and 12:30pm recess.
Student Led Conferences:
If you have not yet done so, please sign up below for the Student Led Conferences on April 10, 11, 12. Students are expected to be in school uniform for the conferences. A reminder that Friday is a non-instructional day as we will be having conferences all day.

Parent Participation Update:
Families, the deadline of May 31st to finish parent participation hours is fast approaching! There are plenty of volunteer opportunities on the website and the Gala committee is in need of more volunteers for this weekend's Gala night.
If you are unable to attend a volunteer shift, kindly remove yourself from the task with as much notice as possible. If there is more than 24 hours notice, the task can be reposted and hopefully a replacement can be found . If there is less than 24 hours notice, email the parent participation coordinator. Failure to report an absence will result in a no show fee of $25 per missed shift. Three no shows, and the family will be removed from the program and will have to pay out the remaining hours at the cost of $30 per missed regular hour and $60 per missed maintenance hour.
