The Raven Report

Semester 1 Early Progress Reports will be available in Aspen on Friday, October 6 at the end of the day. We encourage families to review the report together and discuss the next steps with teachers should there be any concerns.

Families can access these reports using the Aspen link on our Website. We have also posted some instructions that show how to login. You will find the progress report at the bottom of the "Pages" top tab (see the image below).

Thanksgiving 2023 is on Monday, October 9. We wish our Raven families and the extended community a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend with family and friends. We look forward to welcoming students back to school on Tuesday, October 10.

Eastside Secondary is requesting that parents/guardians pay a voluntary student activity fee of $15 per student. The purpose of this fee is to support school events designed to enrich the student experience through involvement in extracurricular activities.

As a school, we rely primarily on funds collected from parents/guardians to run school spirit activities and student events. The student activity fees help us to have Assemblies and Guest Speakers, Student Council Spirit Activities, Transition Programs for new students, and Student Recognition Events like the Academic Awards, Graduation and School Sports are all supported by student activity fees.

Online payment will be available through School Cash Online.
