School Supplies:

Students are encouraged to wait to buy specific school supplies until classes have started. Generally, students should arrive on the first day with a binder, some paper, and some pens and pencils. We will have school supplies available for any families feeling the strain of the school associated costs. 

A laptop computer is becoming more and more useful in school and many students bring their own computer each day. We have devices to use at school but many students prefer to use their own.  

Lockers:  

All grade 8's will be assigned a locker and will be able to access it starting on the Grade 8 Welcome Day August 31, 2023. Grade 9-12 students will be able to request a locker. More information will be sent to students about how to request a locker in the Welcome Emails in August. 

School Fees:  

There will be no general school fees this year. Students may be requested to pay optional fees for supplies for take home projects, athletics, field trips or graduation events.  Any families who have an expressed financial need can have any fees waived/covered by the school. Connect with the Principal if you would like to request any fees to be covered at any time. All requests are kept in confidence.
