Hey Raccoons!
We are quickly approaching the end of Term 3 and a well-deserved vacation from school! However, before we set our sights on Spring Break, we have quite a bit to accomplish by the end of the term and in the early part of Spring. Just to ensure we are all on the same page, please take a minute to review some important details below.
Upcoming Non-School Days (Monday, March 15 and Friday, March 19)
There is no school on Monday due to staff professional development. Classes resume on Tuesday, March 16.
There will also be no school or online learning on Friday, March 19 in order to facilitate the staff vaccination clinic.
Term 3 Exams (Thursday, March 25-Friday, March 26)
Term 3
exams will take place on Thursday, March 25 and Friday, March 26. Students are
welcome to leave after their exams at 12:10pm each day. However, campus will
remain open for lunch. Students who take the bus are welcome to work at East
Campus or in Cafeteria 150 until the buses depart at their regularly scheduled
