School Photo Orders
As we near the end of 2016, I hope everyone has had a great school year so far and found opportunities
to get involved with the life of the school.
It is wonderful to have opportunities to see not only what our students are learning, but to see how they
are learning – collaborating and problem solving, using technology in exciting new ways, and engaged
in hands-on activities.
I want to take this opportunity to thank the dedicated staff members, students, families and community
members across our Board. Thanks to all of the great people we have in our system, we continue to
advance student achievement and well-being.
Our Board continues to have a strong commitment to creating welcoming, inclusive learning environ-
ments that enable all of our students to thrive. Engaging families in your child’s education and the school
community is in an important part of creating that environment.
There are resources for families available on our Board website at www.yrdsb.ca/parents, including in-
formation on Board programs and supports, and tips for parents to support your child’s learning at home
and at school.
Best wishes to everyone for a safe and happy holiday season and a wonderful start to 2017. I hope you
are able to enjoy time with family and friends.
