Remembrance Day Ceremony
Our Remembrance Day Ceremony will take place on November 9th
at 1:40 pm. We are fortunate to have the Canadian Legion and Knights of
Columbus coming out to the school to lead our celebration. It is our privilege to
observe and remind students of the sacrifices made in the name of freedom so
that we can enjoy our life in Canada. In addition to our military, this
includes our police and first responders. Our thoughts are with those families
who have lost a family member in service to our country and/or community and
those who continue to serve.

Registration Instructions for Parent/Teacher Conference
As per the information shared in this month's school newsletter here is the procedure for registering and booking your upcoming parent-teacher conference. Parents click on the “Register” tab and fill in the registration
form to create an account. Once parents have successfully registered, they can
login to the system and then must register their students by name.
To Book
Appointments Select Teachers Parents can schedule appointments for any student
that they have added to the system by clicking on the “Appointments” button
beside the student’s name. The parent is then taken to a page where they can
select the teachers with whom they wish to meet. Multiple teachers can be
selected by using the “Ctrl” key on a PC keyboard or the “Command” key on a
Macintosh keyboard.
Teacher Appointment Calendars Parents are shown the
calendars of the selected teachers. It also shows them appointment times that
are unavailable for booking. Parents can select appointment times by simply clicking
the check boxes or by clicking in the time block beside the check box. Once an
appointment time has been selected it will change to green. If no appointments
are available, click on the call back button at the top of the list. It is not
possible for parents to select more than one appointment at the same time or to
select more than one appointment with the same teacher. Javascript enabled
browsers are required for validation on the screen.
Appointments Booked
Successfully Once the appointments are booked the screen will display the list
of appointments for the student. When the parent clicks on the “Return to Home
Page” button, they will return to the home page with their students and their
appointments listed. They can book additional appointments, or they can book
appointments for another student.
Parents with More Than One Student If a
parent has more than one student at the school, the teacher appointment
calendars will have an additional feature displayed when the second (or third,
etc.) student bookings are made. If a sibling has an appointment booked, the
student’s name will be displayed for a parent, thus making it easier to book
adjacent appointments.
Printing Parent Appointment Schedule From the home page
it is possible for you to generate a PDF document with the list of your
appointments. By clicking on the “Print Appointments” button a window will
pop-up asking the parent what they wish to do with the document.. In Internet
Explorer, it is recommended that people click the “Save” button, save the file
and then click “Open” to view the file. IE sometimes has a problem downloading
and opening PDF documents that are generated from web sites. Click “Open” after
the download is complete to view the PDF. Parent Schedule PDF The generated PDF
will list the appointment times, the student and the teacher with whom the
appointment is booked.
If you have any further questions you may contact the
