A couple of messages from guidance.
Attention grade 12s: Grade 12 Community Service hours to be considered for graduation awards, are due this Friday. Please bring your signed volunteer hours that have been completed for a not for profit organization to guidance before the end of the day on Friday.
If you require a timetable change, please have a parent email your guidance counsellor with details of what you would like to change. Guidance is working through the changes in priority sequence, such as level changes or failed courses that need to be repeated. Elective changes are not a priority. Students must attend classes until guidance has contacted you. We are working through changes as quickly as possible, and we are unable to find you to discuss your desired changes if you are not in class. Many classes are full so timetable changes are not always possible. We will not make any timetable changes without parent permission and we will not make any changes for teacher preference or to be with friends.
Course selection presentations will be happening on Thursday during period 2 for any students in grade 12 who are wishing to return for a fifth year. Any student wishing to return should plan to attend.
