Welcome to December (if you can believe it?!). We are moving along quite nicely here at school, looking forward to another busy month. We have started with Basketball season in the gym, sent students to WE Day, the Vancouver Aquarium, Hawaii and more this past month. We also had the Greenthumb theatre come and present to all grades, as well as Grad Photos.
Updates from the Main Office:
Report cards are coming up in the very near future. If you don’t yet know how to log into MyEd/MyClass to view your students’ report card, please check the Parent Portal for instructions. It is important that parents view report cards in order to continue and support your student as need–be it facilitating tutoring, arranging a teacher meeting and so forth.
Curriculum and Course Planning
Course planning for 2019/2020 is already in the works! Students will begin making their choices in the new year, and information pertaining to what is required for each grade, as well as course descriptions/offerings will be online soon. We are excited to launch new curriculum for English 11 next year, as well as a few new courses in Physical Health Education and Social Studies.
Special Note: All students entering into Grade 10 AND 11 will be required to take Career Life Education in their timetable next year.
Careers 9
All grade 9s are required to take Careers 9. This month, Ms. Allen will be attending Social Studies 9 classes to talk about their assignments, help with MyBlueprint and get them signed up for the upcoming Careers 9 presentations: Careers 9 Presentations.
