Principal Message - Short Week for Students

Hello STM families,


Don’t forget to share your plans for the 2023-2024 school year! Sign into your PowerSchool account and click on "Pre-Enrolment for Next Year" to let us know if you will be returning to our school or where you will be attending next year. The pre-enrolment process lets us know how many students to expect in September 2023 and helps us plan for staffing, class sizes, and programming. You can find more information about pre-enrolment on ecsd.net/preenrolment.


Thank you to all our parents/guardians that joined our School Council meeting last Tuesday. It was a great success!


We are excited to welcome Mr. Antonucci back to our staff this week. Ms. Urquhart will be covering approximately a month leave of absence for Mr. Bryson so we are blessed to have a consistent staff transition in the coming weeks.


One of our neighbouring high schools, St. Oscar Romero, is promoting their drama production: Murder on the Orient Express. The details to attend are below.


Grade 9 Families

All four high schools we encourage our students to attend have now presented to our grade 9 students. Each of the schools offer wonderful learning opportunities for our students. Please take some time to help your child plan for high school. Our grade nine teachers will also be spending some time helping them pick their courses in the coming weeks. We strongly encourage our students to go the high schools' open houses

to help them make the best choice.


You will need to go to St. Joseph's and Archbishop Macdonald's website to apply and register with those high schools. St. Oscar Romero and St. Francis Xavier (FX) will be coming to our school in the middle of March to register our students. The forms our students will be using are attached below. Please go over them with your children in the coming weeks.

Hello families, This is a special year because we have many interested EAP students in our grade 8 and grade 9 classes. Therefore, we placed them into multiple classes per grade level. Our teachers are committed to enrich our motivated students by enhancing their knowledge development, character development, and community engagement throughout the school year.
