Thank you & Virtual Meet-The-Teacher
Thank you to those families who joined our virtual Meet-the-Teacher on Thursday evening and Friday morning. We hope that the Scope and Sequence document outlining the essential outcomes taught and assessed this term, shared by teachers, is informative and that you continue to enjoy access to the Google Classroom to see highlights of learning posted every Friday.
Music & Learning Commons Update
Mrs. Serra will be starting formal music instruction with our students this week. In the mornings, Mrs. Serra will be supporting within her literacy role and then working with students inside the Music Room for the afternoons. We are so excited to bring some joy back into this space! All COVID-19 protocols will be strictly adhered to throughout this instruction. Please don't hesitate to reach out to Mrs. Serra at jeserra@cbe.ab.ca with any questions. We would also like to welcome Mrs. Laurie Haydu to our Learning Commons space. Mrs. Haydu has worked across the CBE serving students K-12. We are grateful for Mrs. Haydu's support and expertise to enhance literacy learning at Ramsay through our Learning Commons.
Emergency Drill Practice
This week, we have scheduled our first fire drill. The teachers have been preparing students around expectations for fire drills to set them up for success. Debriefing this event with our students also helps them to understand the processes & purpose of emergency drill practice. We have also been working with our school's CPS School Resource Officer, Constable Mark Enzie to plan our first lockdown practice, which will be held later in the fall.
School Council
We look forward to Thursday evening at 6:00 p.m. for our first virtual meeting of the year. School Council is an excellent opportunity to form connections within the school and with other parents, to hear about what's happening at our school and to help advise through parent voice. This year, all School Council & Association meetings will be held virtually. Our General Election will take place this Thursday, as well an Admin Report and Teacher Report. An agenda will be sent out before Thursday's meeting.
Have a great week ahead,
Jill
