4. DEVICES
Should a student require a device to learn remotely, please complete this Google Form no later than Sunday, April 18th. We will do our best to accommodate requests. Students are reminded that these devices may only be used for school work and engaging in remote learning. Devices that are requested will be ready for pick-up at the same time as textbooks and students and parents are to follow the same schedule, designated by grade.
Students and parents are reminded that the schedule for the school day remains the same. The school day begins promptly at 8:20am.
Even during remote learning, parents must report their child’s absence using the Safe Arrival System.
For any inquiries or should you have questions, please contact the school at 905-851-3259. We ask that students and parents not come into the school at this time. Your call/message will be re-directed accordingly.
