During Kindergarten registration, the Ministry of Education is conducting a voluntary survey regarding experiences in child care and community activities, called EYE@K.

We are inviting parents/guardians of students in Grades 4-12 to fill out a school climate survey to help schools gain insight into parent/guardian perceptions of school safety. The survey also assists in making informed decisions and plans to help promote safe and inclusive schools and student health and well-being. The survey is open until March 8, 2021.

Did you know that in terms of work / life balance, job satisfaction, and overall wellbeing, skilled trades professionals rank among the highest? Join Dr. Jon Callegher from JobTalks Tuesday March 9 at 7 PM Central for a virtual presentation outlining his research, and why young people should consider skilled trades and apprenticeship as a pathway to a successful life and career. You will also learn how students can get a head start on skilled trades and apprenticeship through the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program at the Rainy River District School Board.

Please fill out the survey to share your thoughts with us on the proposed school year calendar. Your feedback is then taken to the Regional School Year Calendar Committee comprised of the CSDC des Aurores Boreales, Keewatin-Patricia District School Board, Kenora Catholic District School Board, Northwest Catholic District School Board and Rainy River District School Board. The survey closes January 22, 2021.
