Happy New Year to you and your family. I hope you had a great holiday with lots of love and laughter. My name is Jeff Campbell and I have the privilege of being your Acting Principal until the full time Principal is hired. I met many of the students and staff on Friday, December 19 and witnessed the heart-felt hugs and tears from the students as they said good-bye to Mrs. Scarrow. These touching scenes underscored how important strong and positive relationships between students, parents and school staff are through the process of teaching and learning. I hope to continue the tradition and build strong relationships with you. To that end, I encourage you to say “Hi” when you’re at the school. 

As you may know, the recruitment process for Andrew Sibbald’s next principal has already begun. As new information becomes available, we will let you know. 

I understand that we will be rescheduling one of the Dance residency performances that was postponed due to weather. We will forward more information once a performance date has been finalized. 

My apologies for any errors or omissions to the calendar of events below. I hope to be more accurate as I become more familiar with the school. 

Kind Regards 

Jeff Campbell
