SCHOOL SUPPLIES - BACK TO SCHOOL 2020-2021

In an effort to minimize items going to and from home, we will be supplying most school supplies for our students.

- For students in Grades 1 to 6, we do ask that families provide a plastic pencil case and a handheld pencil sharpener with a built in container for shavings, both of which are to be left at school.

- A reusable mask will be provided to students in Grades 4 to 6. Masks will go home for cleaning daily. Students from Kindergarten to Grade 3 are strongly encouraged to wear masks as well.

- Families should also purchase a backpack, lunch bag and refillable water bottle.

NO Lost and Found

Unfortunately, due to the risk of Covid-19, we will not be maintaining a Lost and Found this year.

All properly labelled items that are found before, during and after the school day will be returned to the student to whom it belongs. Any unmarked items will have to be disposed of at the end of each day.

Please ensure that ALL items your child brings to school; backpacks, lunch bags, containers, refillable water bottles, pencil cases and pencil sharpeners, sweaters and jackets are all clearly labelled with their name.

$Math symbols & numbers logo$ Math Facts - Doing Mathematics with Your Child (Kindergarten to Grade 6)

Today, critical thinking, problem solving, reasoning ability and ability to communicate mathematically are essential skills. These processes are the foundation of mathematics instruction in Ontario schools. "Doing Mathematics with Your Child is a guide available for parents of students in Kindergarten to Grade 6. This guide offers ways to engage your child in thinking and talking about mathematics around the four strands: number sense and numeration, measurement, patterning and algebra, and data management and probability. Check out this Parent Guide created by the Ontario Ministry of Education. All tips are based on Ontario's curriculum and are connected with what your child is learning in school.

Elementary School Program Framework (ESPF)

The Framework explains that the district's model for elementary school program delivery is the designated community school model. The framework outlines our elementary program offerings, school configuration models, school size, and addresses single and dual track schools. Consultation on the ESPF is underway and we are interested in your feedback. There are a number of ways to get involved: discuss this issue at school council; complete the survey; and/or send an e-mail. Consultation is planned between November 3 to December 21st. The survey deadline is December 13, 2016. The final staff report, including feedback gathered through consultation will be presented for discussion at the OCDSB Committee of the Whole meeting on January 17, 2017.
