George Bissett Elementary

GBES Weekly Family Forecast (March 28- April 1, 2022)

Welcome Back Families,

 

We were excited to welcome students back last week after the March Break. It was evident that students loved being back at school and spending time with their friends.

 

Last Wednesday was Assessment & Evaluation Day. Report Cards will be emailed to families on Wednesday.

 

Parent-Teacher Interviews take place on Thursday, April 7th from 1-3 and 5-7pm. We are excited to be able to welcome families back into our school. Families have the option of choosing an in-person appointment or a virtual appointment (phone call). Appointments can be made by using the same online appointment booking system as Term 1. You will need to create an account in order to book an appointment time to chat with your child’s teacher(s). A reminder that you can also book appointments with specilaist teachers such as French, Music, Phys. Ed, Leanring Center and Resource. Follow the link http://www.parentinterviews.com/gbe or go to the George Bissett homepage and click on the Parent-Teacher Interview widget to create an account and book an appointment time. The link will be live by Monday, March 28.  Contact Mrs. Betts in the office if you need assistance booking an appointment.

 

Click here for EXCEL Program Registration for the 2022-23 school year. Early Registration takes place the week of April 25-29. This is open to students currently enrolled in the program. General Registration opens May 2 for students new to the program.

 

Our SAC Monthly meeting takes place tomorrow at 6pm.

 

With Spring upon us, the school grounds are quite muddy. Please send in a change of clothes in case your child has an accident outside. Students are also reminded to bring in a water bottle each day. 

 

Don’t forget to contact Mrs. Betts in the office if you are able to volunteer to chaperone our May 12th field trip to watch a performance of “The Lion King” at Prince Andrew High.

 

Subway lunch takes place tomorrow and Little Ceasar’s on Wednesday.

 

Have a terrific week,

Jimmy Hurley
Principal
