There are some items of note in the newsletter such as the Grade Eight Parent Evening to be hosted by EMCS on the 11th of February. This is an important event to attend.
There's information about yearbooks, a stylish snowman signed by all staff :-) and much more. Please look for the notice today!
Thank you.

Food For FoodBank
Already we have had a GREAT response. Students have piled goods onto our table in the classroom! If you have any contributions to our efforts, they are greatly appreciated. We will be taking the food to the foodbank on the 18th of December.
Thank you for your generosity to others. The students are learning valuable life-lessons through your kindness.

For the next 7 school days, Mr. Constable will be teaching Social Studies and English in Mr. L's room.
Mr. Constable is attending the University of Victoria, striving to attain his teaching degree. This short practicum will be a truly valuable experience.

So... they shouldn't have been sealed :-)
Okay, so now I know why the report card envelopes should not have been sealed... the office wants to re-use those envelopes for two more reporting periods.
My fault. I sealed every one of them myself and now all the envelopes look a right mess because they had to be torn open. Sorry.
Please do send them back signed, however, so I know you have seen the report cards. I will deal with the messy envelopes.
Thank you!

Report Cards 02 December!
The first term report cards will be sent home -- sealed -- on the 2nd of December.
Here are a few details worth noting:
Students with at least six 'G's and no 'N's will be given the distinction of having their names placed on the honor roll. As work-habits are of vast importance to student success, this is a fantastic distinction to be awarded.
If there are any 'I's (incomplete) noted as the grade on any section of the report card, they can be changed to a proper grade by having either the student alone or the student and parents meeting with the teacher to develop an 'I' plan of work that must be accomplished in a two week period. If no action is taken and the work remains incomplete, these grades will be converted into 'F's.
Our students managed a good showing with many C+ grades and better as well a solid contingent of 'S' and 'G' work-habits.
Thank you for reading. Have a great day!
