Office Hours

The first three days of this week will be staff days.

Staff will be in the building preparing for the students to arrive. 

Teachers will be connecting with families on Tuesday to introduce themselves and let you know about First Day meeting places. 

The School Office will be open from 9:00am – 2:30pm Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday, Mrs. Ewart will open the office around 10:30am. This will allow her to be part of the team building activities that staff will be participating in together. 

What to Expect Before Thursday Start

Your child’s teacher will be emailing you on Tuesday, August 27, 2024. If you do not get an email from a teacher on Tuesday, please email/call the school on Wednesday and we will be sure to send you the information. The teacher will be introducing themselves and will be giving instructions about where to meet on the first day.

We have been organizing and planning the class lists since May. A great deal of time and effort has gone into them, with student input, teacher and administration input, and parent input. At this point in time, we will not be making any changes to class lists. It is not uncommon for students to initially react with a bit of emotion to some of the changes, but we ask that you allow them a few days to settle in. Thank you for your support and understanding.
