We are so delighted to be back for a wonderful school year and we are so excited to see all of our students and staff back with us this school year.
Our students are finishing their first week back and have been busy forming relationships with the students and staff in the building. We would like to welcome two new teachers to our school this year - Mrs. Preece to the Grade 1/2 team and Ms. Kensley to the Grade 4/5 PLP team. Welcome back to Mrs. Reid who has joined the Grade 3/4 team.
At Roland Michener School we have created a common language to use with our students: we are safe, caring, kind, responsible and friendly. We respect ourselves and others. We respect our learning environment. We respect learning.
The safety of our students and staff is very important to us. CBE has mandated the use of masks for all staff and kindergarten to Grade 12 students for the start of the 2021-22 school year.
In addition, students, staff and families can expect the following health measures to be in place when classes resume in all schools on Sept. 1:
Students and staff will still be expected to use the daily checklist to identify if they should attend or stay home
Staying home when sick – students and staff who present with COVID-19 symptoms must stay at home until symptoms resolve
Proper hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette
Enhanced cleaning and disinfection of high traffic/touch areas
Enhanced ventilation in schools
Classroom cohorts in kindergarten to Grade 6
No unscheduled visitors, volunteers or external partners will be permitted in schools at the start of the school year
Communication is a priority for us. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you want to book a telephone or virtual appointment to speak with administration and/or your child's teacher. Our goal is to provide the best learning experience for your child. As partners in education we can do this effectively with your involvement, your feedback and your voice.We are all looking forward to a new school year, and are excited to welcome new families and students to our school community.
