Internet for Students in Need
Our division has looked into getting internet for disadvantaged students. If you know of any families that might benefit from this program, please pass on the information below. They need to get a letter from the Gov't of Canada verifying that they have a net income less than $31120.
Families would need to send a letter from the Government with an access code and you'd pay $9.99 a month.

YEARBOOKS Learning at HOme
We are moving our school classrooms and desks to our homes and kitchen tables. This is a truly unique, global event and it will be part of the future history books. I would like to be able to record this as part of our school history book, our yearbook. If you would like, please send a photo of your children involved in their home learning activities that I could use in the yearbook. Send it to valeriea@eics.ab.ca and select Large format when you send it to me. Thank you.
