Welcome Lochside Families to the 2020-21 School Year!
We are looking forward to another successful school year at Lochside. While this year again, will likely be a little different from a pre-Covid year, we are excited for the possibilities that lay ahead.
Thank You's
Thank you to Trish, Kelsey, Leanne and Louisea for helping distribute Monks orders to families last Friday. Any orders not picked up will be delivered to students on Friday.
Parking
Just a friendly reminder that parking and the school parking lot can be chaotic. To help make the school transitions less stressful we recommend parking offsite and walking the last few minutes to Lochside. If you are using the school parking lot, remember to drive all the way to the end of the drop off lane, let your student(s) out and then continue out of the parking lot. This lane should not be used if you need to assist your student(s) in getting out of the car. When parking on the side streets around Lochside please follow all posted signs and be respectful of our neighbours.
LEPAC Meeting - Tuesday September 14th
Every parent is invited to attend the first LEPAC meeting of the year. The meeting starts at 6:30pm. Tentatively, this is scheduled to be in person at Lochside (is subject to change). Masks will be required. To know how many people plan to attend, please sign up ahead of time, through this link. This is a great time to hear the plans for the 2021-2022 school year, get an update from Administration and to meet other parents. If you have any questions please contact us at lochsidepac63@gmail.com
Volunteers
LEPAC needs many volunteers throughout the year to help make our many initiatives successful. Volunteers who will be in the school and potentially interacting with students will need a Criminal Record Check completed. This must be done every 3 years. Please watch for the information on how to do this when the start-up package of forms goes home with your student. If you wish to be contacted about volunteer opportunities please email lepacvolunteers@gmail.com
Covid Safety
Please remember to give teachers space when dropping off and picking up. Also, masks are mandatory inside the school should you have to enter for any reason.
