important message for graduating seniors

Welcome to the 2011-12 school year at YIS!

Dear Parents and Students,

Welcome back to school.  We have had a very busy and exciting opening and have seen a lot of smiling faces of children who are happy to be back in school and ready to increase their learning this year.

We are on track to have more students this year than last year; we just can’t say exactly when that will happen.  We currently have over 280 students attending, and by Saturday we expect more.

Our campus has experienced many upgrades and improvements over the summer with work proceeding on many projects.  We will have a full report at our Open House on Wednesday,October 5th, another good reason to plan to attend.  It will be held from 5:30 to 7:30.

Get ready for Virtual School, held on two days, October 17 and 18, when students will have lessons at home provided by their teachers over the internet.  

Stay tuned for the resumption of after-school activities. Soon we will be sending home forms for students to select their after school activities. Until those start for this year students should be coming home directly after classes end at 3:00pm.

Many of your childrens’ teachers have been sending classroom welcome messages.  Should you have any questions about your child’s day or program, please start the process with the teacher at the email address they provided.

We are looking forward to a year of great learning for our students.

Yours,

Paul Thompson, Principal
