Good afternoon, Colonel Irvine School Community,
下午好! 学文学校社区
Interview bookings opened yesterday. Please remember to book in separately with each teacher you want to talk to. If you have not had a chance to check your students’ marks on your myCBE account you can do this by clicking the “Grades and Attendance tab on the left and then “Assignments and Grades” tab across the top. If you have not checked marks in your myCBE account before, here is a video with the steps.
A reminder that interviews are available for booking now through your myCBE account. They will occur March 20 and March 21 and are all online through Teams. The online meeting link will be in your confirmation email so please save that email.
At our school council meeting on Tuesday night, we reviewed our School Development Plan and looked at the school budget and fees report. This information is all on our website. We encourage all parents/guardians to complete the short survey sent yesterday today to share your thoughts regarding next school year. Your feedback will guide our planning and budget decisions for the upcoming year, ensuring that we continue to provide a valuable educational experience for our students.
Dates and times for our provincial achievement tests (PATS) for grade 6 and 9 students are now available. Please see below for all the details.
Lastly, good luck to our Sr. Girls, Sr. Boys and Jr Boys team for making it to the Divisional Finals on Monday for the boys and Tuesday for the girls.
Thank you for your support. Together we can continue to build a strong school community.
Ms. Ko and Ms. Dalwood
