Dear Parents,

We are in the final month of school and doing our best to end this year well!  We would like to invite you back again for next school year.  We are making plans and although much will be the same, we are planning a few changes for improvement.  If you have concerns or suggestions you believe may be of help, feel free to email me at katherton at peacechristianschool.ca or let another member of our team know.

We plan for our classroom splits and teaching staff to remain the same for K through Grade 5.  We will be saying goodbye to Mr. Assigbe (“Mr. G.”) at the end of the year and Mrs. Diminyatz will be returning from maternity leave to teach Grades 6 and 7.  Ms. Dawn Astleford (yes, she’s related to Mrs. A.) will be joining our high school teaching team, primarily for our Language Arts program.  She will be visiting us next week so if you happen to see her, please give her a warm welcome.

For high school students, a course/credit planning sheet was handed out to each student.  This has helped us plan our courses and electives for next year, as well as hopefully helped students plan for graduations and their futures.  We hope to have next year’s tentative schedule out in about a week and have students sign up for the classes they plan to take in September.  During September registration, we will make adjustments if needed, as availability allows.

Thank you for being part of our school family this year.  We hope to continue working with you and your student to learn school curriculum, as well as character traits that will take them far in life.

Regards,

Kristin Atherton
CAO
