Eco Club Survey for Parents, Staff and Students

Dear Parents,

I am hoping you can take a few minutes to answer the questions below about our school grounds. This survey is to help the eco team find out what staff,students and parents like/dislike about our school grounds and any improvements/suggestions that people have. Please reply to me with your responses (carla.leonardo@tdsb.on.ca) ..... if you are uncomfortable with that, just put your responses in my mailbox. It would be great to have your input by Monday, April 2nd.

Thank you,

Carla Leonardo

Classroom Volunteers Needed

Dear community,

We are in need of a few hours of classroom volunteer time, particularly for academic support for late primary/early junior kids (reading, writing, math). Does anyone have a few hours they can devote between now and June? (I’m not thinking about a sufficiently large amount of time that a police check would be necessary.)

Please email me directly at ian.turner@tdsb.on.ca if you are available, many thanks.
