Principal Message - Mr. M. Lastiwka
As the 2009-10 school year comes to a close, I am amazed by how quickly this year has gone by. It seems like it was not that long ago that we were celebrating our high school graduation and we are already looking forward to our 2010 high school grad on September 11, 2010.
The end of this year is a little bitter sweet as we must say goodbye to Ms. McTurk, Mr. Putnam and Ms. Tichkowsky. We are looking forward to welcoming back Mrs. Serediak, who will be teaching the grade 3/4 class and Ms. Nobes who will be teaching grade 5/6 class and also be our special needs facilitator.
Ms. Nobes is very excited about joining the Andrew School staff. She has two greyhounds, a horse, a cat and twin sons, aged 22 all of whom live in Edmonton. Her favourite activities (besides teaching and learning) include downhill skiing, riding her horse, dog walks, reading mysteries.......and deep water aqua fit!
Ms. Nobes would like the grade 5/6 class to get ready for a great year and she will see you in the fall!
Our office for new registrations will open on August 25thand the first day for students is August 30th.
I hope you all have a fun, safe and restful summer and I look forward to seeing you all in the fall.
