School Site Council - Teacher Reps

Our School Site Council Teacher Reps are set for a refresh. I need ONE more members for this year. Typically it is a 2 year commitment.


Current Reps:

  • Tess Karol
  • Michelle To


Let me know if you are interested as part of adjunct duties. If we have more than 2 interested , then you will vote.

Adjunct Duties

Thank you to everyone who has already signed up for adjunct duties for the 19-20 school year. Your teamwork, passion, and energy help to create a GAME CHANGING year for all Falcons.


There are still some of you who did complete the form before I started collecting names. If you responded to the form before 8:45 am on 8/19 please see Clarisa and let her know which response was yours.


There are still a few of you who have not yet completed the form for selections. Please respond NO LATER than Monday, 8/26 so I can have a completed list. I have updated the form with adjuncts that are still in need of support.


You can complete the form HERE.

Sub Requests

Please put your sub requests in as early as possible. Frontline cuts off your ability to request a sub at 7:00 am on same day requests. If possible, please submit prior to 6:30 am so there is time to get a sub or find period coverage. It makes for a very hectic morning when we hear at the last minute.


If you need coaching, please see a PLC member or Clarisa.
