People's Picks (October 11-14)

This week's middle school student of the week is Abigail McEvoy. Abigail is in grade 6. She received middle school student of the week because she is a very co operative and attentive student in class. She is always prepared for class and is always wearing a smile on her face. She is kind to the other students.






The students have voted and this week's middle school teacher is Mrs. P. Duffy. Mrs. P. Duffy said that her favourite thing about teaching is that she has a chance to interact with all of the student and she loves to see them learn new things. She finds it very enjoyable. Mrs. P. Duffy's favourite thing about the fall of the year is that she gets to spend quality time with her family outdoors.





This week's staff member is Mrs. P. Underhill. Mrs. P. Underhill said that her favourite thing about being the Vice Principal is that she can still teach a class,  as well as getting to know and communicate with the students of all ages. Mrs. P. Underhill said that her favourite thing about the fall is that all the trees are pretty colours and that it is so close to Christmas. Mrs. P. Underhill was so honoured to receive staff member of the week.

People's Pick (Oct 3-7)

The student of the week is grade 11 Jared Keenan. Jared was nominated for student of the week by Mr. T. Grattan. Jared got student of the week because he is a hard worker in class, and he is a very co-operative student. Jared is friendly and polite to other students and is always smiling.

This week we asked the high school students to vote for their favourite teacher. When we tallied the votes, Mr. Johnston got the majority! Mr. A. Johnston is one of the student's favourite teachers because he is very funny. He is also fun to learn from in class. He always keeps things interesting and class is never boring with him. He is kind and loves to help.

Loretta loves working at the school because she loves all the kids. She was very surprised to receive staff member of the week. When she was told that she got the staff member of the week she said that she was "jumping with joy." Loretta is a person that always can put a smile on people's face and the students love her. She is very much appreciated in our school, and she is a welcoming face to see everyday.
