September 3
Welcome back to school! I met students in 7-6 today and distributed envelopes and many handouts. Students are encouraged to return the following four handouts as soon as possible (by Friday at the latest): orange email form, brown BYOD form, blue Standard Release form, and white Data Verification form (with signature!).
Students are also encouraged to bring in cheques or cash as soon as possible. Students need a Stanley Park t-shirt and gym shorts (one cheque or $25 cash) and a planner (already distributed) for $5. Optional items include a lock ($5) and/or a yearbook ($15). The 'classroom' items must be paid for with a separate cheque (or cash).
