  • Update for Families: March 1, 2024

    March is upon us and spring is on the way! The changing of the seasons is a wonderful time to reflect on our relationship with the land, water, trees and natural world. It is also a great time for us to appreciate the work of KPR’s custodial staff for their dedicated efforts to keep our schools clean during wet weather!

    As the year draws to a close, I want to extend my sincere best wishes for a restful and joyful holiday break.

    Yesterday was Winter Solstice, a day to mark the return of the sun’s presence in the sky, and a day with important significance in Indigenous cultures and communities. It is recognized as a time of renewal and reflection.
