Dear Secondary Parents,

The first week back from a long holiday can be difficult for teenagers to get up and start again with their routines. I am hopeful for that as the week progressed your child was able to quickly readjust into their routines.  The end of the first academic semester is quickly coming to an end on Friday, January 18, 2018.
