EE Oliver Elementary
June 2022
From the principal
As we wrap up another school year, I find myself reflecting. 2021-22 proved to be a bit of a roller coaster as we dealt with a variety of fluctuations in health regulations. But despite living in a constantly shifting world, I know I will look back on memories from the past 10 months and smile. I hope that each and every one of you can and will do the same. Our concerts and assemblies, sporting events and cultural events, welcoming new students, celebrations of student successes through our Eagle awards, giving back to our community through fundraisers and donations, as well as all of the memories of the citizenship and learning that took place played a part to make this year one worth celebrating!
I’d like to extend a special thank you to those who made all of these great things happen. Firstly, thank you to the parents who trusted us with your precious children and those who volunteered in our building in various roles. Thank you to our staff who embraced the changes as they occurred and provided the best education they could for our students. Thank you to our students who came to school ready to learn with smiles on their faces. To everyone in our school community, thank you for your commitment to supporting every student at E.E.Oliver. The collaboration of our community fosters a positive school culture where students are able to learn and also goes a long way to making EEO a great school.
As we enter the summer months, I wish you good health and sunshine! I look forward to meeting and working with you again in the Fall. If we can be of assistance please do not hesitate to contact us.

From the Superintendent
As we approach the end of the 2021-2022 school year, I would like to take this opportunity to
thank our students, parents, staff, and community members for their contributions to education
within our division. It has been an interesting year full of positive changes, forward movement,
and consistent teamwork, and we can’t thank you enough for your dedication to PRSD.
To our students, your resiliency, adaptation, and devotion to your studies has been inspiring,
and your hard work has been recognized by all. You have persevered and completed another
year of your education, despite difficult circumstances, and we are extremely proud of you. You
have made a positive impact within your schools, communities, and society.
I want to wish our graduates all the best in their future endeavors, as I know they will continue to
make PRSD proud after graduation. I am very humbled by the countless examples of collective
and personal accomplishments, growth, school, and community spirit demonstrated by them
during this school year.
I would also like to extend a huge thank you to our parents, guardians, and family members for
their outstanding involvement over the past 10 months. Watching you come together to provide
support, encouragement and assistance to our students, staff and schools has been incredible. I
recognize and appreciate the time, sacrifice, and efforts you have and are still making to PRSD.
To our staff, we couldn’t have done this without you. Thank you. You continue to rise to the
occasion in your dedication and flexibility in ensuring students are cared for. Your resiliency,
creativity, and adaptability are greatly appreciated. The ways in which our staff throughout the
division are collaborating and supporting one another is a true example of our mission
statement, “Learning together, success for all.” Every role in the division has a direct impact on
student learning and success and I am so grateful for the care and guidance that I see
demonstrated every day within the division.
Thank you to our community members and organizations. We are very thankful for your
contributions and participation in local education. Your involvement shows our students the
importance of teamwork and community spirit – which are imperative attributes that will serve
them all their lives. We are very appreciative of your time spent volunteering, providing input,
advocating, and forming partnerships throughout our school division. Your support has made a
world of difference.
Lastly, I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to all our school communities for their
commitment to PRSD. You have played a substantial role in education and have positively
impacted each and every person you have crossed paths with. I want to wish everyone a safe,
fun, and fulfilling summer break ahead, and I look forward to seeing familiar faces in the fall!
Thank you all for an incredible year!
