Happy Monday folks,
Your last assigned readings for our courses were posted and our last Meets occurred last week. 
Some important information I need to relay:

-All Textbooks need to be returned the WEEK of June 15-19.  Families will drop off at a prearranged time to school; Please continue to check your school email, and follow instructions communicated via Powerschool, or our School website. 
-Any more work that you wish to submit must be done by this Friday, June 12
-Marks are being finalized with the compilation of work done by students since shutdown. Many of you will note changes while the portal is still open. However, I believe it will be inaccessible for a period of time just before
-Report Cards will be released the week of June 22 via Parent Portal.

Perseverance: persistence in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success.

I believe we have persevered through this school year that has brought us many challenges. I’m very thankful to have had so many of you willingly engage in your education after the schools had physically closed. And I want to wish you all the best for your summer and, to the grade 9s, a successful transition into high school. 

Sincerely, thanks for tuning in.

Monsieur Thorne

Good morning,
Happy Monday!
Believe it or not, this week is our last for online learning sessions. Time has flown by, and I feel like we were gaining some momentum. However, this September will probably be anything but normal, and this adjustment period has been good, as moving to this format is likely inevitable for the foreseeable future.

That said, I’m beefing you up with enough material to get you through June. I’m going to be holding our last meet sessions with the 9s on Tuesday, and the 8s on Thursday.

The material that you have been submitting to me has been very encouraging to me as your teacher, because it has shown that so many of you have a keen interest in your own education. 

Sciences 8 - les interactions des systèmes

Sciences 9 - la reproduction asexuée

Sciences Humaines 9 - The Arrow - Space Race

Stay safe and stay in touch!
