Student Services

Students interested in taking a free online course next year are invited to register now! We ran into some challenges last year and I am hoping that early enrolment will fix that. There are always online courses that students can take for a fee. If you are interested in knowing more, please reach out to me via Edsby message or email.
Grade 12 students are reminded to complete your exit survey for Student Services as this information is needed to retire your Ontario Student Record.
Grade 11 students are reminded to complete their post-secondary planning survey as this will help prepare the guidance program customized for you next year.
All students in grades 9-11 who have not yet submitted their course selection sign off sheet (hard copy of their course selection) are asked to do so as this is helpful to our planning and work next year.

Students Council

Greenspace update: We received news that the architect hopes to be finishing our plans by June 2 – then it goes to the town for permits for our second try. We currently have approximately $85,000 saved for the project. Our initial estimate was $100,000 so we are getting closer. We hope to fundraise and share an updated cost with you soon! Thank you, Phil Schilstra & Schilstra Builders, and  Jason Brouwer, Architect and all the other supporters and donors that are helping us get closer to this dream becoming a reality.

Student Council. elections will be held on June 7.

Things to look forward to: Country and Western Day on June 2 (tomorrow) and our annual Canada’s Wonderland Trip on June 16 - it’s going to be an awesome end of the school year!

Exams

Good morning, everyone. The exam schedule is posted in printed form on the window outside the library, as well as in school talk. As noted on the schedule, if you have two exams scheduled at the same time, please let Mr. Lammers know right away so we can clear up the conflict promptly.
My hope for everyone is that you will do your best to end the semester well. God bless!

ATTENTION GRADE 12s
Re: Community Service Hours - a Graduation Requirement.
This is to remind grade 12 students, as well as their parents and guardians, that the community involvement graduation requirement of 40 hours has been restored for the 2022-23. Students working towards their OSSD should make sure they meet these graduation requirements in time for their graduating year. I encourage all students to log into Hour Republic (hourrepublic.com) and review the number of volunteer experiences that have already logged. Further, students are also able to check the updated number of hours that have already been VERIFIED and approved on a list posted outside my office door (Hours AS OF APRIL 6, 2023). *** There are still far too many of you with 0/40 hours logged; please take care of this ASAP. *** Note, there are just over 2 Months (9 weeks) left until the end of Semester 2 and your grade 12 year. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out connect with me.
