I Day Information – January 30-31:

The end of Semester 1 (Grade 9-12) is fast approaching. Wednesday, January 29th is our last day of regular classes in this Semester.

Thursday, January 30th we will be having an “I Day”. On the 30th, only students who have been requested to come in by their teachers are required to attend (this includes Grade 8’s). The intention of this day is to assist students who are just short of passing their course to finish projects and improve their mark to passing. If your student has not been told to attend, they do not have to come to school.

Friday, January 31st, the school is closed for all students. Staff will be resetting their classrooms for the next Semester, starting Monday, February 3rd.

Semester 2 Schedules:  Students in Grades 9-12 are checking their next semester schedules online this week and have been instructed on how to make changes with the school counsellors.

Please note that the next round of Grade 8 electives also start on Monday, February 3rd. Their new elective classes will be posted in their current class, starting Wednesday, January 22nd.
