The school has closed for the summer! We want to say a final goodbye to our retiring staff (Mrs. Worman, Mrs. Newport and Mrs. Heeroma). We also want to wish the best to the staff that are moving on to bigger and better things (Mrs. Winsor, Ms. Reynoldson and Mr. L'Heureux). We look forward to welcoming many new faces when the new school year begins on Tuesday, September 4 under the leadership of our new admin team of Principal Mr. Geoff McFarlan and Vice-Principal Mr. Wade Worman.

Report cards are available to be picked up today from 9am to 12 noon. If they are not picked up or the school has not received a self-addressed, stamped envelope, they will be available for pick up in the fall when the school reopens.

Can you believe that another school year has come to a close? Teachers and staff will be busy putting the final touches on report cards on Thursday. They will be available for pickup Friday morning from 9am to noon.

I am a devastated amateur photographer this morning. In the process of cleaning up our computers and removing a virus from them, all of my yearbook photos from this year were lost. After a week of working with the IT department, I have to resign myself to this loss and beg for the school community to upload any photos you might have of school events as Karrie Blackbeard describes below, so we can have a yearbook for this year. Please accept my sincere thank-you for any photos you send. "Jostens has a yearbook photo app, where I believe anyone can upload photos from their phones or computers. If you find the ReplayIt App on the app store, install it and search for Neilburg Composite School we should be linked. These photos go directly to the yearbook maker site, so I can pop them onto the pages where needed. If you have issues, please grab Blake or contact me (Karrie Blackbeard) and I can assist. You will have to login to use it…I just used my facebook account…"

Thursday is our local track & field day. Grade 7-12 students compete in the morning. K-6 students go in the afternoon, beginning at 12:15. We want to remind all parents to ensure that their kids dress appropriately and bring a hat and water bottle. A hot dog lunch will be available along with plenty of cold treats.
