Student schedules for semester two will be handed out on January 21st in B block. Hey Travs, I do not have a B block. Okay then pick it up in the office on the 21st . Minimal changes to schedules will be available.
Grade 8 – 11 Student MyEd log in practice
Starting the week of January 17th in B block, your teacher will provide time for you to ensure you know how to log into your Student MyEd account. You need to be able to do this in order to pick your courses for next year. If you are absent when your class practices this login, stop by to see Mrs. Parkes if you need help with it.
Student and parent learning Survey – grade 10 and 12s only
Please take time to let us know how we are doing. A great way to do this if you are a parent of a grade 10 or 12 student is by participating in the learning survey.
Every year the Ministry of Education conducts learning surveys with our grade 10 and 12 students and parents/caregivers. Grade 10 and 12 students will be taking the short 15 minute survey between January 19th and February 28th in their classes. Parents/caregivers are invited to participate in the survey as well any time between now and April 30th using the following link: http://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/sat_survey/access.htm
Once on the page, under Parents and “Direct Access-No logon number required” choose our school district (Nanaimo-Ladysmith 68), school, language of preference and “Log on”. Thank you for providing your valuable feedback. The survey covers a range of topics, providing a comprehensive picture of the educational experience in B.C. Public Schools. The information gathered is used to assess the effectiveness of educational programs, to improve educational program delivery and to report on student performance and achievements toward system goals such as Human and Social Development and Career Development.
