Students do not have access to the building until school supervision begins at 8:25 a.m. Students must leave school property immediately after school at 3:00 p.m. unless staying for a school-sponsored event (e.g., an after school club or participating in a sporting event). Students watching after school sporting events must be supervised by a Parent /Guardian or an adult over 18. Siblings of those on the team are allowed to stay and watch with a Parent or Guardian over 18.

Our intent is to provide families with information about available options for their convenience.
Lost and Found
Are your children missing things? Due to the enormous amount of clothing, shoes, boots and other items, Lost and Found will be placed outside at the front of the school for the first 3 days next week (May 11-13). Please tell your students to check if you think they have lost anything. On the Thursday & Friday (May 14-15) everything left will be, FREE, first come first serve. We cannot store clothing for months, we do not have the space. Kindly label your child clothing and let them know not to leave it in the playground.
Late -are you Late
Please be aware that due to the change in our Late Slip Process when you bring your student late there may be a lineup and wait for the late slip printer. All parents of kinder students must wait in line with their student until handed to a staff member who will run them to class. Please try to be at the school gates for the bell at 8:40 to avoid these lineups.
Please be kind and safe and do not park in the Bus Zone on Pleasant Ave! Please do not park in the handicap spots unless you have a permit. Please use the drop off/pick up Zone on Dufferin St. as a safe alternative! Thank you!

We cannot guarantee that students will receive messages called in after that time as students often have rotary during the last instructional block of the day. Early pick up is by 2pm. Please label all clothing with your student's names
