FAMILY ENGAGEMENT AND COMMUNICATION SURVEY 2025-26
As we enter the final month of school, we want to take time to reflect on what has gone well and what needs improvement. We want to ensure every family feels connected, informed, and valued at our school. If you have not done so already, please take 3 minutes to share your thoughts on our communication and family events this year. Your feedback will directly shape our planning for next September. Every question is optional, and your responses are completely anonymous.
Thank you for your time and partnering with us to make our school a wonderful place to learn!
SCHOOL COUNCIL
Our final school council meeting for the 2025/26 school year will be taking place this Thursday, June 4th at 7:30 p.m. in our library, following the presentation by Terri Keay called “Parenting Your Anxious Child” from 6:30-7:30. All are welcome to attend.
PUMPKIN GARDEN AND THANK YOU FOR DONATIONS
Many thanks to Courtney and Ainslee, our parent volunteers and school council representatives for a successful TPS Garden Launch! We have already started growing pumpkins in our new CAJA planters and students have been helping Courtney and Ainslee with weeding the area. If you/your family are interested in helping to support the garden over the summer, please let us know!
EARLY DISMISSAL -JUNE 25 2026
All schools in the York Region District School Board are committed to improving student achievement and well-being. On Thursday, June 25, 2026, an early release day will take place to allow elementary staff to take part in meetings during the afternoon of that day. These meetings will allow for school staff to engage in culminating activities regarding the review and revision of the School’s Improvement Plan as well as year-end and transition activities that support student success.
As has been our practice in the past, students will attend school during the morning of Thursday, June 25, 2026 only. Students will be dismissed early that day at 11:50 a.m. Arrangements will be made to ensure that students who are normally bused to and from school will receive transportation at this time. Families whose children attend after school child care should make appropriate arrangements to address this change in schedule.
PREVIOUSLY COMMUNICATED
