A letter from Principal Bowen

With the new year we are happily kicking off year two of our Snow Cat’s program. This year we have doubled the number of skiers at 50! We are also excited to have expanded the Snow Cats skating program to a multi week program for 48 kids who wanted more time skating! For those students who are not participating in Snowcats this year classroom teachers are planning some fun standalone outside and baking activities. We are so excited for the opportunity the Snow Cats program will provide our Wildcat students!

We had one of our graduates visit us and is doing great in the service! Joelle van Lent spoke at our inservice on January 2nd. She spoke about Executive Functioning skills. We will be doing more work on this in our advisory.
