Don't forget that both your Article of the Week and your personal essay are due on Friday.

Posted: November 2, 2016

Over the past few weeks, we have been working on reading comprehension with our grade nine students, both fiction and non-fiction.  We have been focusing on topics that we feel are important for teens to be knowledgable about.  One of those topics is the legal issues surrounding sexting - we want students to be informed of their responsibilities when communitating digitally.  So your child may want to discuss some of these topics with you as we move through the mini-lessons.  Report card marks are due next week, so any late assignments owing are due by Friday at the latest.
