Welcome Back
Welcome back. I hope everybody had a great week off and rejuvenated their system for the final push of the year. As we move into the three months of the year, BCTF job action has been suspended and staff will be fulfilling their regular duties that were affected by the job action including supervision and report cards. We are looking forward to the many educational activities that regularly take place towards the end of the school year.

Parents will be receiving a newsletter from the school and a letter from the district today. The district is consulting parents on the possibility of creating a two week spring break again next year. Here is a link to the letter.

Letter Sent to Parents Today
March 1, 2012
Dear Parents/Guardians of Students:
Dave Hutchinson,
Superintendent/CEO
As you may have heard, the British Columbia Teachers’
Federation has announced that its members will be withdrawing their services
for three days commencing Monday, March 5, 2012.
As a result, teachers will not be reporting for duty
on the following days:
- Monday, March 5, 2012
- Tuesday, March 6, 2012
- Wednesday, March 7, 2012.
While school facilities will remain open under the
supervision of school district staff, we will be unable to provide students
with instruction or appropriate supervision during this period of job
action. We are therefore requesting that parents keep their children at home on
Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (March 5, 6, and 7). It is important to note that school buses
will not be operating on those days.
Please note that registration for French Immersion
Kindergarten will go ahead as planned starting Monday morning. More details are available on the school
district website.
We expect schools to reopen for students on
Thursday, March 8. If there is any
change to this situation, we will inform local radio stations (WAVE 102.3 FM
and WOLF 106.9 FM) and we will post information on the school district website www.sd68.bc.ca. You
can also follow the district news on Facebook and Twitter by using the icons on
the home page of the district website.
Thank you for your patience and
understanding.
Sincerely,
Dave Hutchinson,
