Tuesday 6 November 2018

Homework and Reminders Nov. 6, 2018.

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We are having some issues with students at recess and lunch time when there is not a constant adult figure in the portable. Some students are locking the door from the inside out as well as throwing and kicking balls around the room. This is causing damage to personal items (mine as well other students) and students getting upset with others that are not listening and following the expectations. I have spoken to the class to ensure that the message of "breaking" the rule is clear. From this point forward if students are caught breaking the rules, they will be calling home immediately and possible further consequences will occur in the office. Please have a conversation with your child about expectations in the portable at recess and lunch.

Homework:

Math:
Personal Graph is Due on Thursday- please READ the rubric and SUCCESS CRITERIA and complete accordingly.
Math Test on Data Management is on Friday- review on Thursday
People that are fixing up marks have until Friday to do so!!!

Dear Parents/Guardians,                           

Making new friends and making memories with old friends are important parts of the school year.  Help your child keep the fun and memories alive for years to come with a yearbook, a time capsule of the events and people that made this year unique.

Last year marked our very first yearbook, and it was a HUGE success.  The majority of our families ordered one. Rick Hansen Public School is pleased to announce that we will continue the yearbook tradition started last year.  The cost for the 2018-2019 full-colour yearbook is $26.

Please make your payment using SchoolCashOnline (https://yrdsb.schoolcashonline.com/).  Orders are due by the end of November.
