Dear Parents and Families,
I hope that you are doing well this weekend.
Classes will be staggering their Terry Fox run on Sept 23rd, throughout the day. At this time we are still not able to have parents attend events like the Terry Fox Run. We appreciate your understanding and patience in the matter.
We are collecting Twoonies for Terry throughout the week. Please consider sending a twoonie with your child to school this week. All donations will go to the Terry Fox Foundation.
Thank you for helping your child come prepared for the weather last week. Please note that “inside days” are rare and only happen during extreme weather. We try very hard to send kids outside to play at recess and lunch. There will be many days when kids will get wet. Please continue to help your child be prepared for the weather.
Important Information- Update Parent Connect!!
Thank you to all the parents who have already updated and completed their forms approval on parent connect.
All parents are required each year to go on-line each year to update their demographic/emergency contact information. We rely on this contact information when trying to keep parents informed and need it to be accurate. Since the district is now using two systems for student records, MYED BC and our CIMS system we ask that parents email their changes/updates to your child’s demographic/emergency information to Mrs. Adam at cadam@deltaschools.ca. If you need to update your home address, we require appropriate proof of your address (purchase/rental agreement, current year property tax receipt, current month rental receipt showing address, or letter from landlord). own a home: residency
As well, each year permission forms need to be reviewed and approved. The health form has been updated and included in these forms. All forms are approved electronically through parent connect.
