We pleased to announce that we were able to hire .5 of a teacher to support the grade 5 /6 classes in literacy and mathematics.  We would like to welcome Benjamin Graham to our Ron Southern team.

This Thursday and Friday are Parent Teacher Conferences.  It’s important to know how your child is doing in school. Knowing more about your child’s interests, strengths and areas for development are critical to help you support your child’s learning.  Parent-Teacher conferences are an opportunity to have formal conversations with your child’s teachers to ask questions, discuss specific concerns and learn more about your child’s learning, progress and achievement. 

In addition to Parent Teacher Conferences, there are numerous other ways we strive to have ongoing communication with you so that you understand how your child is progressing and learning.  These include both informal (e.g. teacher weekly updates, feedback Fridays) and formal (e.g. conferences, report cards) communications.  Through these various forms of ongoing communication between you, your child and the teacher, we are able to build an understanding of your child’s achievement through the course of the year.

Tonight is School Council.  Please join as, as we will presenting the 2023 – 2024 School Development Plan.  Similar to last year, this year’s SDP will be focusing on literacy, numeracy and student wellness.  We will also be offering babysitting at this meeting if you need to bring your children.
