Week of April 5 – 9

in School News

 

There are a few new families who have joined our Ruth King Elementary School family and I would like to take this opportunity to welcome them.

We also have three new staff members who I would like to introduce.  Ms. Breeanna McDonald is our new school counsellor, who is taking over for Ms. Sheyla Beattie who is on maternity leave.  We also have two new Education Assistants joining our team, Ms. Lillian Magee and Ms. Manda Campbell.

Reminders:

  • Please remember to do the Daily Health Check with your child and keep them home if your child is sick. This is still so important and we all really appreciate your support in keeping everyone healthy.
  • If your child is going to be away from school, it is important to email your child’s teacher to let them know directly.
  • Please also remember to wear a mask at all times when you are on the playground with your child. Please remind care givers who are dropping off and picking up your child as well.   And please also stay safely on the non-paved areas away from the staff when they are picking up their classes.   We all really appreciate your cooperation.
