On Thursday, October 16th you are invited to attend our Semester 1 Parent/Guardian Teacher Interview Night (Open House Format). This is in follow up to our 5th Week Reports.  These will be sent out on October 9th to all Grade 9 students, and to students in Grades 10 to 12, who may be experiencing some difficulties. Parents/guardians will have an opportunity to connect informally with teachers and to discuss their student’s overall learning skills and coursework to date.

Staff members will be available to meet parents/guardians between 5:30 - 7:30 PM. Location details will be provided in the main foyer just inside the main doors. In order to accommodate all parents/guardians, we have asked staff to keep discussions to a maximum of 5 minutes in order to meet as many parents/guardians as possible. If you require a more detailed interview with a staff member, please contact the teacher directly through email to set a mutually convenient date and time.
