Hello Families,

We hope your summer is going well and you’ve enjoyed the lovely weather we’ve had. As the weeks pass, this coming school year is coming closer and we are busy getting ready. Our building is messy with shelving being installed, floors being deep cleaned, and furniture being moved. Our teachers are starting next week at preparing their classrooms and plans for their classes.

To help you be prepared, here is a little information:

For our Kindergarten to Gr 6 students, we provide the majority of the school supplies needed. Each student needs to bring a reusable water bottle and indoor non-marking shoes (white soles are preferred). For our youngest students, please purchase shoes that do not have laces to tie until students are able to do this without assistance.

For Gr 7-12 students, here is our School Supply List. A water bottle and indoor non-marking shoes are still required. Cleats may also be preferred for PE classes outside on the field. A pair may be available at school if you would like.

Orientation Day is Thursday, August 29 from 10 am until 4 pm. We ask that all students and a parent come during this time. It typically takes 1-1.5 hours to go through the various stations and complete all the items needed. This helps us be prepared for the first day and you to be successful for the year.

Our first day of school is Tuesday, September 3. We start with regular times of 8:30 until 2:30. Another reminder and more information about bussing will come before then.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone in two weeks!

Until then,
Kristin/Mrs. Atherton
