A Message about Soccer Academy from ÉCKS

Dear Grade 5 Families, 

It's great to connect with you!    

On our ECKS school website, we have information about our school's Soccer Academy Program running from February to June 2023.  Originally,  it was communicated that the registration deadline for the program was October 30, 2022.  As we reflect on our ability to effectively plan for the second semester, we need to adjust the deadline.  Therefore, the registration deadline has been changed to August 30, 2022.  This has been updated on both the parent information document and the registration form.    Please see our school website for more information!  

We can't wait to meet all of our new students in September.  Have a great summer break.

January 3 - Gr. 4 and 5 Families - Drop-off/Pick up location change

In an effort to reduce vehicle congestion in the back loop of the school parking/drop off/pick up, we are asking grade 4 and 5 families to drop their student off to line up outside the front of the school, rather than at the back and adding to the congestion. We thought we would be in the new school and wouldn't need to make a change, but as we don't yet have a move in date, we need to make the change now to try to keep students safe and minimize risk.

Starting January 3, please drop your gr. 4 or 5 student off to line up in the front of the school yard.  If they are crossing the street in front of the school, please ensure they do so safely, using the crosswalk. 

Thanks for your help!
