Grade 9 Farewell at DTS in the afternoon

Grade 9 Farewell Celebration

When: Tuesday, June 13th, 2023
Time: 12:30pm - 2:00pm (Doors open at 12:10)
Where: David Thompson School, Main Gym
Attendees: Grade 9 students and their families

We have had a few inquiries about who may attend the Grade 9 Farewell celebration at the school. Due to available seating, we are asking families to limit the number of attendees to four. If there is a sibling at the school who would like to attend the celebration, please have them called to the main office. The expectation is that younger siblings will sit with their family during the celebration. There will be an opportunity for photos afterwards.

Course Selections for Next Year

The time has come for your child to register for their 2023-24 complementary courses. All students registered for David Thompson School in September will have to select their choices and an alternate. Course requests will be open until June 16, 2023. Course availability is based on student interest and scheduling considerations.

JCS Transition Tours - June 19th

Dear Future Raven Families,

In the morning on the first day of school, August 31, all Grade 10 students will be in attendance prior to the Grade 11 & 12 students arriving for the afternoon. During that time, grade 10 students will engage in various school activities and receive a tour of JCS alongside student leaders.

However, should you feel your student would benefit from extra support prior to transitioning to high school, you are invited to sign them up for a tour of Joane Cardinal-Schubert High School before school ends in June. During the tours, student leaders will provide 30 minute tours around the school with small groups of Grade 9’s and answer questions. While their student is touring the school, there will be a space for parents/guardians to meet and ask questions with Guidance Counsellors, Assistant Principals, and Parent Council Representatives. There will not be an opportunity to meet teachers, as timetabling and staffing are not finalized until August. Students will meet their teachers in August.

Tours will take place on Monday, June 19 in 45-minute increments between 4:00 pm and 6:45pm. If you are interested in signing up for a tour, please click on this link.

We can’t wait to meet you! - JCS Staff & Students
