On Tuesday Dec 6th at 2:30 we will be having our Principal’s Tea to celebrate students with excellent achievement in the first term. Invited students and their families are welcome!

Registration for second semester is open! We’ve changed some of the course offerings, so if you are a current student, your timetable may need to be changed. Please see Karin in the SOLE office.

We’re very excited about the new options, which include Writer’s Craft, American History (online), Current Aboriginal Issues in Canada, World Cultures: The Global Potluck (online), and Media Studies: Game Design. Don’t wait until courses are filled!

It’s another great cooking workshop with Student Voice in the SOLE Office. Gemma taught us how to cook a delicious veggie stir-fry! As you can see, students couldn’t wait to try it out!

Broghan Masters and Jasmine Dunn from Parkdale Community Legal Services presented a fascinating and useful lunch-and-learn on  rights in the workplace. Students learned about the Employment Standards Act, discrimination, termination, and asserting your rights. Thanks to Broghan and Jasmine for empowering the next generation of young workers!

Join us in wishing a warm welcome to Peggy King, our new office administrator! We all look forward to working with her as a friendly face in the office.

This holiday season, show your spirit and generosity by helping a family in need. We’re raising money and collecting toys for a Syrian refugee family of five. See any teacher or the office for a list of what items are most needed. Anything helps!

Registration Dates: Wednesday, Nov. 30th at 9:30 AM, Thursday, Dec. 8th at 10:30 AM, and Friday, Dec. 16 at 10 AM.
