Back to School

I've been officially back to school for 4 days.  My summer holiday is over, but I am excited about the new school year.

Some things to mark on your calendar:

September 6 is the first day of school.  Students meet at the back of the school, and then follow staff into the gym to find out which classes they will be in.  Parents are welcome to join their students in the gym.

September 13 is the first School Council meeting of the year.  It's from 7-8:15pm in the library.  Babysitting is provided.  We encourage everyone to come out and learn more about the "behind the scenes" of Eastdale.  Don't worry -- your presence does not commit you to a year of committee meetings or obligations!

September 20 is Meet the Teacher BBQ 5-7pm. 

September 24 is our Eastdale Annivesary Celebration.  I am pretty excited about the events the school council has planned.  Check out the Anniversary "page" above for details.

September 30 is a Professional Development Day for teachers.  We'll be working hard on setting and planning school goals for the year.

See you soon!
