Weekly Parent Newsletter - Friday, September 10th

Hello GDHS Families,

It has been wonderful to see our building full again! Week 1 was a great success, due in large part to the efforts of our staff who have worked diligently to welcome students back into our school community. We are excited to continue having classes all day, every day for all students.

Traffic/Parking Lot

In an effort to foster safe traffic flow in our parking lot during morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up, please follow these traffic guidelines whenever possible.

Lockers

At this time, lockers are being assigned for specialty purposes only. The admin team will revisit the issue of locker assignment for all students at the end of September.

Timetable Changes

Our guidance department is still working through course change requests. Please be patient as they do so. Any further timetable change requests will be addressed based on priority and not on a first come, first served basis.

Prevalent Medical Conditions

We will soon be communicating our procedure for the collection of information on Prevalent Medical Conditions (Asthma, Epilepsy/Seizure Disorder, Anaphylaxis, Diabetes). Many of you may already have a Plan of Care on file, which can be confirmed or updated at any time.

Financial Assistance

Please reach out to the school if your family is in need of financial assistance. There are multiple ways that we can lend support of this nature.

Photos

Edge Imaging will be hosting another photo day at the school next Monday, September 13th. Announcements will be made for those students who did not have their photo taken this past week.

HDSB Code of Conduct

Please be reminded of the Code of Conduct for all members of the HDSB community.

Weekly Schedule

Next week, students have period 3 in the morning, and period 4 in the afternoon.

Please see here for a detailed semester calendar and key dates.
