Bits & Pieces

  • Please place any 2017-18 photos that can be shared on the website in the designated folder on Staff Shared Folders
  • So far, it looks like we will have two kindergarten classes once again (but we still need more students to confirm a Pre-K 4-year-old class).
  • If our secretary has a “Do Not Disturb” sign on the counter, it means she has deadlines to meet and would rather you send an email with your question or please come back a little later.
  • Fundraising or outing requests due by March 20th
  • Employment requests (percentage change, transfers, retirement) are due in April—details posted in staff room and in office.
  • Forms to specify teaching preferences will be distributed at the next teachers’ meeting (March 19th)
