We’ve worked really hard on our school success goals of improving on how we tackle thinking and understanding questions. There were teams, clubs, choirs, drama opportunities, field trips, leadership opportunities, special events and many opportunities to develop bonds, friendships and a strong sense of community. At times, after school, I felt like a conductor pointing our parents in all directions as to where to collect students who were participating in all kinds of extracurricular activities. We have had a fabulous year. June has been such a busy month. I am so proud of our teachers and our students. The teachers have devoted their time to provide many engaging activities both in the classrooms and with extracurricular activities to keep our students motivated right up until the end of the year. Many of our students have capitalized on these opportunities and have had a lot of fun, acting, running, jumping, dancing, writing, singing and learning. STAFF CHANGES Good byes: This is always a sad time of year. We will be saying goodbye to a number of staff members as they go on to other opportunities. Ms. Simpson-Parkes is our .5 Vice Principal. She will be going to another school so that her two .5 positions are closer together geographically. She has been an integral part of our staff with her warm smile and common sense. She will be greatly missed. Ms. Shamas, who teachers Special Education and contact, is to be congratulated on her promotion to vice-principal with the Algoma board. She will be working back where she grew up and her family still calls home. We will miss her humour and leadership. one of our Phys.Ed. teachers will be leaving us to go to William Gage Senior Public Ms. Dyck, school. We will miss her energy and fun. Mme. Masse, our Grade Eight French Immersion teacher will be joining Ms. Dyck at William Gage Senior School continuing in the Grade Eight position, Her leadership skills will be missed.
