Dear Vanier families and friends,
We are approaching the end of our semester! Next week will be the final informal report home for semestered classes. Please don’t hesitate to contact teachers directly (by phone or email) for more information or to help support your child in coming up with a plan for improvement.
Our website – www.vcss.ca – is where you can find our handbook and is a great source of school information, too!
Sincerely,
Ryan Sikkes, principal
Dates to Note:
November 21 - Dalhousie University presentation
November 22 -24 - Senior Volleyball Championships @ PCSS Good luck to our teams!
November 25-29 - Informal reporting window
Parents/Guardians can expect an email from each of your child's teachers next week. This email is to let you know how things are going and how to support students as we head into the last few weeks of the semester. The email will also let you know about any upcoming Important assessments that may occur in late December, before Christmas holidays. Please help your child be ready by marking these dates on your calendars at home and discussing strategies to be successful. FYI, all academic courses will also have scheduled exams January 13th - 16th.
