October 14 - Indigenous People's Day:
On October 14, we celebrate Indigenous People's Day. Last year, there was law established around all students receiving 1 hour of instruction around this day. Our Teaching and Learning team developed some resources in a shared folder - Indigenous People's Day Folder. Please plan to do some of these activities on Monday, October 14.

Ring On – Press this button when you want ALL calls to ring your phone; both internal and external.
