    Dear Families;

    As a parent I both dreaded and relished receiving the “back to school letter.” While I was excited for the school year to begin, I also knew it meant that summer was coming to an end.  I suspect that you too are receiving this letter with mixed emotions.  For me personally I write this letter with great anticipation for a new school year.  But even with more than 34+ years in education I still find myself having a little less sleep each night as the date draws closer to opening day.

    To help you prepare for the school year please keep in mind the following information:

    First Day of School for Students:  Wednesday August 28th

    No School Labor Day: Monday September 2nd

    Bus Routes - Bus routes are being finalized and will be posted to the website.  Parents should also be on the lookout for an Email from Transfinder with information about their specific bus route and approximate pick-up time.  

    Please note that to help ensure everyone’s safety and the efficient use of our resources we will continue our bus pass system.  The passes will be distributed to students at the start of school.

    I look forward to seeing you soon and hope that you are enjoying these last days of summer…

    Regards,
