Message from the Principal
January can be a long, cold and dark month. It was terrific to have those warmer, brighter days in the middle of the month. Amazingly, we are already into February. The days and weeks do seem to go by quickly!
On snowy, blustery mornings, information about bus cancelations and potential school closure will be posted to the scrolling message on our school website (www.egr.bwdsb.on.ca). Information is also given to local radio stations and is available on their websites.
Please remember that when bus routes are cancelled due to inclement weather, the bus will not run at the end of the day. If it is safe to do so, parents may drive their son or daughter into school. However, parents will need to return for a 3:15 pickup. When sending your son or daughter to school on inclement weather days, please do consider individual safety.
If your son or daughter is able to come to school on an inclement weather day, it is a terrific opportunity for catching up, completing projects, finishing assessments or working on other tasks that require completion. We always strive to maximize the learning on each school day – inclement weather days included.
As always, please call if you require more information or have any questions.
Sincerely,
M. Bennett, Principal
Egremont Community School
519-334-3640 X-527
