Classroom News - March 10

The following people need to return the "March Adventure Ed. Permission Form" ASAP:

- DB          - AB          - KC         - TL            - CJW

Just a reminder...the ice fishing trip to Lake of the Prairies has been moved to Friday, March 18 (due to the poor weather forecast for the next few days).  Everything, as planned before, remains the same - departure/arrival times (9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.; 12:00 p.m. - 7:15 p.m.), clothing, equipment, food/drink, etc.  However, one new item has been added - our MC Knoll Knights will be joined by the Gr. 7/8 classes at St. Paul's School!  If you have any questions/concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Ask you son/daughter about today's Adventure Ed. to Deer Park - tobogganing, snowshoeing and/or cross-country skiing.  

Our student-led conferences will be held in person at the school on the evenings of Wednesday, March 16 and Thursday, March 17.  Conference times have been scheduled and confirmation sheets have been sent home.  If you have any concerns about the times, please contact the school ASAP.
