Dear Parents and Guardians,

I hope that you had the opportunity to connect with the teachers of your children during the Parent – Teacher Conferences this week. It is important that we communicate on all levels, students through the Student Council, parents and guardians through the School Council and directly with their children’s teachers and administrators. The sooner we know about any areas that need addressing, the better we can support you.

Thank you to the Parent Association for providing food for all teachers last night and to our community partners, Triwood Association, for their delicious catering.

Thank you all for your ongoing support for SPB.

Sr. Ludwigsen, Principal
