INFORMATION FOR FAMILIES

Walk Your Wheels

Students are reminded to walk their wheels (bikes, scooters, rollerblades) on school grounds before (8:45am-9:00am) and after (3:00pm-3:15pm) school. This is for safety reasons as the school is very busy with children, adults, and pets at these times. We thank the students in advance for their co-operation.

Family Hardship

As per Administrative Procedure 506, the District is committed to ensuring that no student of school age will be denied an educational program due to financial hardship. Parents/caregivers unable to pay some or all of a school charge are invited to speak to their child’s teacher, school counsellor, and/or the principal. As always, all requests will be treated with dignity and your privacy will be respected. We want to work with our families to ensure that our students, your children, have everything they need in order to be successful at school.

Government Restrictions on PDDs (which include watches and ear buds)

Please be reminded that restrictions on the use of cellphones and other personal digital devices came into effect on July 1, 2024. The district emailed families regarding these changes on June 20. You can read the letter here: https://district.public.deltasd.bc.ca/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/DS-Letter-home-Personal-Digital-Devices-June-20-2024.pdf
