On June 21, we celebrate the heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding achievements of First Nations, Inuit and Métis people!

 

From the Government of Canada's website:

With these cold winter days, it is so important that our Dragons are safe outdoors. Even a short time outside without proper winter wear can be dangerous. We would like to thank Amy Corteau and Dance Plus EP for the generous donations of winter items such as toques, mitts and scarfs!

Families, whether you're new to our school or have been a longtime Arcola Dragon, here are a few quick reminders.

Please contact the office if your child will be late or absent.

• Smooth transition period - students who arrive at school with time to spare have the opportunity to settle into the classroom, prepare their materials and focus their minds on the lessons to come.
• Important information – a typical school day starts with announcements and introductions to new lessons and concepts.

Facts about Attendance and Reading:

Did you know?

Being on time for school sets your child up for a great day of learning.
Even in Kindergarten, absences can cause children to fall behind in their learning.
Missing 10 percent (or about 18 days) can make it difficult to learn to read – a critical future skill.

Thanks to the generosity of our staff and students at Arcola Community School, we were able to donate $717 to the Humboldt Broncos GoFundMe. Thank you for your incredible support!
 

Arcola Community School Nutrition Program is partially funded by President’s Choice Children’s Charity. Their monetary support helps feed students nutritious snacks and emergency lunches. A student who is hungry cannot concentrate on learning. Thank you for all your support, President’s Choice Children’s Charity!

Arcola Community School would like to thank Farm Credit Canada for their kind donation of Breakfast and lunch food kits. With their help, we are able to feed students who do not have had breakfast or lunch. We also are able to supplement their lunches with their most generous support.
