Exploring Grade 9 at Nelson High School
We are hosting our annual evening for our incoming grade 9 students (currently grade 8) on Thursday November 13 from 5:30 - 7:30. The formal presentation starts at 5:30 and the ‘Open Doors’ school tours begin at 6:30. We are excited to welcome the community in to hear more about the exciting programs at Nelson.
Our Annual Food Drive Has Begun!
We’re excited to announce that our annual food drive kicked off on Monday, November 3rd, once again in partnership with the Gift of Giving Back. Last year, Nelson students collected 5,792 pounds of food for our community - this year, we’re aiming even higher with a goal of 6,000 pounds. Click HERE for more information on how to get involved and help us reach our goal!

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.
