Parking Lot Safety – A reminder to all drivers and pedestrians that our parking lot is extremely busy during the morning drop off and afterschool pick up time. Please use extra caution and allow for enough time to drop your child off on time. Alternative locations include the Ball Park and/or Charters Road. Thanks!

The Pan-Am Cross Country Championships on Saturday Feb 29. Ms. Croft is trying to get a Journey team together and has only two students so far. The school race is at 11:20 and is 1200 meters. There’s also a community run (5km) at 9:00. If students are interested, parents should email scroft@sd62.bc.ca so she can register them.
