Dear Tiger Families,
The Term 1 Report Cards will be sent home on Friday. They are a collection on all of the learning that has occurred this term. We are very proud of the progress the students have made both academically and in the areas of learning skills. This report card should not come as a surprise to you and I would encourage you to reach out to your child's teacher if you have any questions.
There will be an attendance letter coming home with all students who have been absent for 10 or more days of school this term. The Ministry of Education and the Limestone District School Board's goal is to ensure that all students do not miss more than 10% of the instructional school days. If students miss 10% of the school year (approximately 20 days) each year, by the time they finish Grade 8 they will have missed an entire year of school. This letter is meant to inform families of how much instructional time has been missed in the first term for your records and information. We will be reaching out to families directly via phone calls where there are serious concerns about attendance and a referral to the attendance cousellor may be required.
We have collected A LOT of Lost and Found. There are images below of the items that have been collected. We are going to have the students look at them this week and we encourage families to come in and take a look. At the end of the week, we will be donating any remaining items.
We celebrated January's achievements on Friday. Congratulations to our seven Tigers in the Spotlight for the past month: Rory, Kate, Leila, Sophia, Isaac, Paul and Ellie!
As always, please reach out to us if you have questions or need support.
Take care,
K. Esford, Principal
