Good evening Golden Star Families!
Earlier this evening, the Ontario government and education workers represented by the Canadian Union of Public Employees – Ontario – (CUPE) reached a tentative contract agreement.  As a result, all WCDSB sites and programs will be operating tomorrow on their regular schedules.
Some reminders for you:
  • Please return ALL Chromebooks to the school tomorrow morning.  We will work to get them back into circulation so that all students can benefit from them.
  • This week is Bullying Awareness Week!  Stay tuned for some updates about what is happening at a school level, and look for updates from your classroom as well!  It is so important to remember the roles within a bullying situation – the bully, the bullied, and the bystander.  It is also so important to remember that together, we can work to prevent this from happening!
  • Monday is Progress Report Day!  Your child will be bringing home their progress reports at the end of the day tomorrow.  Please take a moment to review it with your child and look for the NEXT STEPS, or the GOALS for the remainder of the term.  Setting clear goals and talking with your children about how to achieve them is so important!
  • Thursday evening is Student/Parent/Teacher conference night.  We strongly encourage you to bring your children to this event.  It is important that they are a part of the conversation as well!
  • Friday is Mismatched Shoes Day! Wear two different pieces of footwear to school!
Thank you all for your patience and understanding as we continue to work hard for your children, and our students!
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to the main office.
Thanks everyone and looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!
