SENIOR SCHOOL - June 13, 2024
Principal’s end of year message
Dear Parents,
This Flash marks the last Flash of the year, and the last Flash of my career! Before I head off into the sunset, I wanted to note a few last details about the coming days.
Tomorrow, the Senior School Closing takes place in the gym, starting at 1:00pm. We will likely finish up by 2:30pm. Students have been asked to arrive in their uniform by 12:30pm and be prepared to take home anything left in their locker following the ceremony. All parents are invited to join us for the ceremony as we celebrate the students and their time together this past year. Please enter through the Farnham Street entrance.
Report cards are being completed this week and next. The final June report will be available to download from YorkNet during the week of June 24. An email to you will be sent alerting you to its availability. Paper copies will not be mailed out. Any earned certificates will be sent out in the mail that week.
Looking ahead, next year starts again at Camp Timberlane, with the Grade 9s and 12s heading up on Tuesday, September 3 and grade 10s and 11s starting on Wednesday, September 4. Students return on Friday afternoon, September 6 and then attend their first classes on Monday, September 9.
Thank you for all your support over the years. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with you and your children. Nothing is more rewarding than to work with staff and parents to nurture children’s growth and to see those children develop into young adults who are poised to make a positive impact on our future.
I wish you and your children a glorious summer and look forward to hearing about the amazing things they accomplish as they eventually enter the ranks of our alumni.
All the best,
David
