Congratulations to all of our staff and students for successfully completing another Quadmester!  The last day of Quadmester 3 will be this Wednesday, April 21st and the start of Quadmester 4 will be on Thursday, April 22nd.  Students will begin Quadmester 4 learning remotely.

 

Distance Instructional Support Days (April 19th- 21st)

Monday April 19th, Tuesday April 20th, and Wednesday April 21st are Distance Instructional Support Days.  During these three days, teachers will be providing students with opportunities to submit any outstanding work and to demonstrate their learning of previously covered curriculum expectations.  Students should be available for synchronous and asynchronous opportunities that will be outlined by their teacher, and according to the schedule below: 

QUAD 3	Mon, April 19th	Tues, April 20th	Wed, April 21st
Learning Block 1 8:20 to 10:20 am	Course 1  Both Cohorts	Course 2 Both Cohorts	Course 1 Both Cohorts

Quadmester 4 starts on Thursday, April 22nd.  We will begin the quadmester with all students learning remotely from home in Course 1.  Students will receive information before Thursday from their Course 1 teachers about accessing Course 1 Virtual Learning Environments (Google Classrooms) – be sure to check your WRDSB email! 

During remote learning, students are expected to be available according to the school’s Daily Schedule to participate in both synchronous and asynchronous activities as outlined by their teacher.

 

Quad 3 Report Cards will be mailed to student homes during the week of May 3rd.   

 

Quad 4 Cohort Information – Anticipating that we will eventually be able to return to in-person learning, all hybrid students will be placed into cohorts for Quadmester Four.  Students that take a school bus to school will remain in the same cohort as Quad 3, but cohorts may change for all other students.  Cohort information will also be shared with students by their Course 1 Teachers this week.  

 

Quadmester Calendars – Please find linked here the Forest Heights version of the calendar for Quad 4.  These calendars identify both the class and the location of the cohorts.  Again, until further notice, all students will be learning remotely from home to start Quadmester Four.
