 Assigned Teachers & Class Placement 

Teachers will contact families via email on Thursday, August 28 in the afternoon to welcome students to their classrooms.  

As we prepare for the upcoming school year, we want to let you know that class lists have now been finalized. Our school staff, in collaboration with staff from our feeder schools, worked thoughtfully and diligently this past spring to create well-balanced and supportive placements for all students. 

Parents had the opportunity to provide input during the spring, and we appreciate those who took the time to share their perspectives. With this input, along with professional judgment and knowledge of student needs, we made thoughtful decisions in the best interest of all learners. 

It is important for families to know that we will not be entertaining requests for class placement changes. We appreciate your understanding and continued trust in the process. 

Supply List 

Supplies for students in grades 5 and 6 are provided by the school. 

Grade 7 to 9 students are responsible for bringing required supplies to school. A recommended supply list can be found below.
