Great Things Seen & Heard

A Secondary 2 student stayed up all night studying for an exam he had written four days earlier, and only found out when he was the only one from his class at school! At least he was useful and helped set up the gym for the graduation ceremony!
A Secondary teacher had a nasty surprise stuck inside a returned textbook: a used pantyliner!
Three places visited by Gr. 5 & 6 students over the course of their fieldtrip day complimented the teachers on how well-behaved and polite our students are!
Our Doc Tech is very good at picking winning books: another shipment has just arrived!
At the end of their graduation ceremony, our Pre-K teachers were very much appreciated by the group effort of the parents: books, roses, and Adirondack chairs signed by all the little students!
Best Prom Night ever, with a wonderful MC job once again by MS!
