- November parent letters require parent signature
- Check below for upcoming assignments and tests for December, as well as student agendas
- Trip money due for Kortright and Marlies
FYI there will be many in class group assignments over the next two weeks. Students may bring in (with your permission of course) any electronic devices that have age appropriate video and computer games on them, as these are going to be a part of our media focus on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week and the week after. If your child doesn't have any video games or permission, not to worry as they will have access to classroom laptops to work with. Students will also be conducting differentiated presentations during the next few weeks with regards to a novel and scripts that we've been engaged in, thus and again with your permission, they may need bring in props and electronic devices for those presentations as.
