A Message from Ms. Elmslie!
Dear Glencairn Community,
Glencairn is home to exceptional Teachers and Early Childhood Educators! And, I know that you think so too. Consider nominating an exceptional Glencairn Teacher or Early Childhood Educator by nominating them for a 2025 Prime Minister Award. The deadline to submit nominations is January 15, 2025 and you can do so by visiting CANADA.CA/PM-AWARDS. I am happy to support you with your nomination and application!
In addition to our educator heroes that walk our hallways and classrooms everyday, today we are seeing many superheroes of different kinds on our ‘Superhero’ Spirit day: nurses, Superman, Pikachu and many others. Way to show your spirit Glencairn! Today is also pizza day, so it is a good day all around! A reminder of our ‘pizza for all’ program at Glencairn. Please reach out to erin_e_young@wrdsb.ca should you have any questions or would like to put your student on our list for cost free pizza.
Long term Glencairn educator Anna Jach will be leaving Glencairn on Friday December 6, 2024 to begin a new adventure in education at Trillium Public School. She is taking her love of children and immense skill set with her. Anna will be deeply missed at Glencairn and we wish her all the best at her new school home.
A friendly reminder that students should have a pair of indoor running shoes for school.
