Hey all, hope everyone is having a restful weekend! Check out the latest Next Step information via the link for NSO News June 9-20
Tuesday, June 17 is the last Instructional day for High School Students.
As we enter the final stretch of the school year, we want to take a moment to express our sincere appreciation for your support and involvement throughout the year, and especially during our 2025 Graduation celebration last week at the DOW Centre. It was a powerful and emotional event, filled with pride and purpose. Thank you for helping make that milestone moment so meaningful for our students.
As of Monday, we are down to just 7 instructional days remaining (High School students). While the year may be wrapping up, learning and engagement remain strong — especially with Part A Diploma Exams, Grade 9 PAT’s and our Grade 9 Farewell fast approaching. Every day still matters, and we are encouraging all students to finish strong.
A quick reminder: All textbooks and novels must be returned by Friday, June 20 to your child’s teacher or the front office. Any missing or damaged materials may result in replacement charges. Thank you for your cooperation in helping us maintain our resources for future learners.
As always, thank you for being a vital part of our school community. As our school motto reminds us: "Small steps are still progress." -Principal Mr. B. Spady, Assistant Principal's Mrs. D. Bennett, Mrs. K. Porter & Mr. C. Martin
