Good evening everyone!
You all performed very nicely as a band today at the assembly. I really enjoyed seeing everyone's hard work pay off. We're fortunate to have such an amazing music educator in Mrs. Legros, and talented students to perform!
There is no homework for the break.
I just wanted to let everyone know how incredibly proud I am of all of you. I hope you all have a very nice break, for you have been working hard and you deserve it. I often realize how fortunate I am to be able to come to work every day and teach a group of students that I enjoy so much. Each and every one of you are terrific young people, with so many talents, and the potential to do great things. I'm particularly proud of the empathy I so often see in you all as a group. I can tell that you care about each other, and it speaks volumes to the character you have developed through the years. I hope you never lose your ability to work hard, do your best, and show genuine care for those around you. You're a terrific group, and I am so thankful that I get to teach so many of you for a second time :)
If you and your family celebrate Christmas, I wish you a very Merry Christmas. If you celebrate another holiday, I wish you a very happy celebration. And for any without a specific celebration, I wish you a wonderful, restful time with your family.
Happy New Year!
Mr. Carr

Please see the note below regarding winter electives.
Important Date Change
Winter Electives
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Snow Valley Resort has recently notified us of an issue
which will affect our Winter Electives.
The long range forecast is calling for warmer winter
temperatures right into the new year.
Snow Valley Resort is concerned that they will not have enough snow for
their tubing hills and have asked us to change one of our dates.
The outing which was originally planned for Friday, January
8th (including the activity your child selected for this date) will now take
place on Monday, January, 25th. Our
January 14th outing is not affected.
If this date change affects your child's ability to
participate (e.g., you know ahead of time that your child will not be in school
on Monday, January 25th), please let your child’s homeroom teacher know. Similarly, if your child was not able to
participate on January 8th, but now can on account of this date change, please
let us know as we would be happy to add your child to the trip.
Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely,
The Junior/Intermediate Staff at Rick Hansen Public School

Good evening ladies & gentlemen,
Today was the due date for winter electives forms. If you will not be participating, please have your parents either write me a note or send me an email to let me know. We need to know numbers for who will be staying behind so that we can plan activities for students here at the school. At the same time, if you decide to participate in Snow Valley then you can always try to get the form in late. The sooner the better.
Please see my note below in the homework regarding the potluck.
Please find your homework below....
-Progress Report envelopes signed and returned please. We are trying to save paper by reusing the envelopes for the entire year.
Potluck- Before I make a decision on the potluck, I would like everyone to discuss with their parents whether this is something they would like to do. I am hesitant doing it because I know that families have a lot going on this time of year and I don't want to put another item on their to do lists. Please come on Monday prepared to take a silent vote telling me whether this is something that your parents are okay with. I would also like you to come with an item that they would like to contribute if they are in fact okay with it. If we do have a potluck it will be on Thursday. (Due Monday)
Health - Please have 3 very meaningful points to share with the class to show what you have learned for your question on healthy eating. (Due Thursday)

Food Drive - We are having a Food Drive to support those in our community who could use support. If you would like to contribute, it would be greatly appreciated. A reminder for our class that if you get 180 items, I will allow you to shave my head (after Christmas...I need to take family photos at Christmas :) )

My mother taught me this: You do not pout or mope or pass blame when things don't go your way. If you have a problem, find a solution. If you make a mistake, look in the mirror. If your car breaks down after picking up your toddler from day care and you get attacked by a dog, you make sure the baby is safe and you keep walking.
