December 2016 – Trustee
Greetings
Message From Our Trustee
As we near the end of 2016, I hope everyone has had a great
school year so far and found opportunities to get involved with the life of the
school.
It is wonderful to have opportunities to see not only what
our students are learning, but to see how they are learning – collaborating and
problem solving, using technology in exciting new ways, and engaged in hands-on
activities.
I want to take this opportunity to thank the dedicated staff
members, students, families and community members across our Board. Thanks to all of the great people we have in
our system, we continue to advance student achievement and well-being.
Our Board continues to have a strong commitment to creating
welcoming, inclusive learning environments that enable all of our students to
thrive. Engaging families in your child’s education and the school community is
in an important part of creating that environment.
There are resources for families available on our Board
website at www.yrdsb.ca/parents,
including information on Board programs and supports, and tips for parents to
support your child’s learning at home and at school.
Best wishes to everyone for a safe and
happy holiday season and a wonderful start to 2017. I hope you are able to
enjoy time with family and friends.
