Remembrance Day: Wednesday, November 11

This Wednesday, our school community will gather for five grade-level Remembrance Day ceremonies. We are grateful to have Captain Danielle Shaver and Retired Chief Warrant Officer Roger Shaver joining us as guest speakers.
Each student will receive a poppy in their homeroom on November 11. Students without a homeroom class can pick one up in the Learning Commons. Wearing a poppy is a simple way to show we remember those who served and sacrificed for our country.
There’s still time to support the Royal Canadian Legion’s Poppy Campaign, which helps Veterans and their families. Donations can be made through School Cash Online, and all funds raised will go to the Stittsville Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion.

CHAMPS!

The Junior Girls 8-0 season was capped off with a Tier 1 city championship!

Congrats to the players and especially coaches Wilson, Houston and McKenna who gave time to bring this team together and earn the banner for the gym.

Who should book?

7/8 teachers often teach up to 150 students, so we ask families to book where it matters most:

Progressing with difficulty: We encourage you to book an interview with that teacher.
Progressing well or very well: An interview isn’t required unless the teacher requests one.
Learning Skills: These are determined by all of your child’s teachers, not just the homeroom teacher. If you see several N’s (Needs Improvement) or S’s (Satisfactory), we encourage you to book

To book:

Go to parentinterview.com/s/heart and sign in with the Parent Code.
Choose each teacher and select an available time.
Click “My Schedule” to email, print, or save your appointments.
Keep your Confirmation # so you can view or change your schedule later. For full instructions and the Parent Code, see the Parent-Teacher Interview Guide.
If you can’t get an appointment, please email your child’s teacher with any questions or concerns.

Inclement Weather Days

In order to ensure the safety of all students parents/guardians are required to report all absences, including those on inclement weather/bus cancellation days. When buses are cancelled due to inclement weather, schools will remain open unless otherwise notified. If your child is unable to attend school on an Inclement Weather day please report their absence as you would on any other school day. SafeArrival can be used for reporting - enter Absent Approved (AA) with a comment of “bus cancellation” or “inclement weather”. This is an important step in ensuring every student is accounted for every day.
