Welcome Spring!
Report cards went home on Wednesday, March 14. Student Led Conferences will be on Mar. 20 & 21 after school. Sign up sheets are posted on the bulletin board in the front hallway. If the times do not work for you or you would like to discuss something individually, let me know and I'll try to accommodate you individually as soon as I can. I will be contacting families Monday afternoon or evening if they have not signed up for a conference. Thanks for coming and viewing your student's progress.
Mme Helene will be available on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings as well. If you would like an individual conference with her you may email her to set that up. She will be available in the classroom for questions during the conferences otherwise. Email: ecarty@bsls.ca
