Wednesday - Students (Gr. 1 - 7) attend 8:35-2:30 - full day  Please see your the agenda for which teachers are working with which grades.  LST will be supporting classes with higher numbers that may be difficult to divide among the classroom teachers assigned to those particular grades (Grade 3 and 7). See agenda. Please take time on Tuesday to plan how this is going to work for you all.

Thursday - Classes in session - 8:35-2:30

Friday - Classes in session - 8:35 - 2:30

Some reminders for this week:

Attendance is VERY important. There will be grade 7 students assigned to help bring the alphabetical attendance lists around to the teachers and ensure they get to the office quickly. Please try to complete the attendance as quickly and as accurately as possible.  If there are students absent, please ask the students if they have any information about that student (maybe they saw them move over the summer).

Please ensure students are picked up and dismissed at the same  location every day this week.


Much more will be discussed in the staff meetings planned for Tuesday.  


Staff/Student Online Communication

In preparation for some further discussion, we'd like it if each of you completed the survey below about the Staff Blog and the Bear Creek Success Blog.  We appreciate and honour your honest feedback.





Thanks everyone!

We look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday!
