This month the SLT has been focusing on conservation. We had a week where students made a conscious effort to use less electricity and then a week when they focused on using less water. Ms. Broberg and her crew have done a great job reminding us that even as individuals, we have an important role to play in conservation.
Badminton season is in full swing! Juniors have practice on Mondays and Wednesdays after school while seniors have practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:00 PM.
On the last Thursday of the month, students from the G.F. Kells High School will be out in the community for 2 hours after school (3:15-5:15). They will be volunteering their time to make our community a better, cleaner place. If you would like some extra help, we are here for you. Please contact Miss Wiebe via email: [email protected] with your ideas for Day of Help!
