Out in Our Community
Please remind your students to be respectful when out in the community before school, after school and during the lunch break. Our neighbours have let us know that they are frustrated by Nelson students littering and putting garbage on their lawns. Some of our neighbours have heard offensive language used, which can be quite scary. Additionally, we have seen and heard unsafe driving on the city streets. Please know that students who are behaving as described above will have school-based consequences commensurate with their behaviour.
