Parents are reminded to be judicious when selecting family vacation times during the school year. It is incredibly difficult for senior years' students to catch up in semesterized courses upon their return, especially when they've been away for 10 school days. Examination times are especially delicate. Provincial exams can only be written on specified days and at the specified times. There are no exceptions.

Anyone who is interested in advertising on the school's virtual signs should contact Mr. Howe at the school.
