Good morning Cardinals

Cardinals, this is our 2nd week of our Online Learning Environment - 2nd week of School for all of us!

This week, we NEED to ensure that :

a) students can connect to the online platform and communicate WHY if they Cannot

b) students are following the schedules for the week which always starts with responsibilities from HOME (preparation for school, right mindset, all resources needed for the classes, proper nutrition and breaks away from the screen).  Remember, that we shared the key activities that will happen each day of the week.  Here is a reminder - 

Monday - General Assembly (then online class schedule commences)

Tuesday - Weekly Spelling Quiz at 8:30 am to respond within 5 seconds (then online class schedule commences)

Wednesday - RK Session (emailed to students) at 8:30 am (then online class schedule commences)

Thursdays - Extended Homeroom with homeroom teaches (then online class schedule commences)

Fridays - Announcement of Spelling winner at 8:30 am

VERY IMPORTANT to remember for this week

Form 1 parents will be reporting to the school for their Facility Fee refunds.  Students will accompany their parents IF they have yet to take ID Card photos. Parents will come in on a Homeroom level starting with 1r8, then 1r9, then 1r10 and then 1r11.  Other parents will be informed of their scheduled time to report to the school.  Parents MUST walk with their bank slips showing that they have made their financial contributions to school.

Our Assembly this Monday morning is to focus on what makes all of really special and comprehensively rounded.  A surprise will be featured at Assembly - so look out for this surprise!

Form 2 students - welcome back to what you started last year (a group so focused and excited about learning).  We will be engaging with you this week to ensure that you maintain this momentum.

Form 3 students - you are now an upper school students and everything looks or seems different.  We will be walking through with you to further allow you to understand the Timetable and how it works.  Don't dismay.  Transition from lower school to upper school has its challenges...we read you!

Form 4 students - please keep the momentum....you are at the point where you need to seriously complete your syllabi.  This is your last FULL year.  Register with extra lessons to bridge the learning losses.  Register with the Ministry and school to explore CXC(CSEC) examinations.  Set appointments with your school Counsellor to establish that your study timetable effectively allows you to have a study plan.  Be armed with the necessary tools to position you for excellent results.  You are well on your way to complete this year well... Keep at it.

Form 5 students - you are now ready for home run!  Have you completed the CXC registration form?  Have you completed your study timetable?  Have you completed the first draft of some of your SBAs?  I certainly hope so.

Thank you students....Thanks to those who contributed to this morning's Assembly...much appreciated.

Best of safe engagements to all of you....

Blessings and peace

from

Your School Principal
