We are pleased to announce that Wednesday, November 5th, is "Take Our Kids to Work Day" for all Grade 9 students. This important program is an excellent career development opportunity, providing your child with a firsthand look at the working world. Students will spend the day with a parent, relative, or friend at their workplace, gaining valuable insights into various careers, the skills required in today's job market, and the importance of their education. Please make arrangements to host your child or find a suitable host for this experience, and ensure all necessary consent form is returned by no later than Monday, November 3rd.

Please note: The school will be open for regular classes for all Grade 10-12 students that day. Grade 9 students are all encouraged to participate in TOKTWD.

For any Grade 9 student/family that does not have a suitable work place experience, a live virtual career exploration event will be available to participate from home by visiting https://www.studentscommission.ca/events/tokw2025/
