Thursday, June 26, 2025 Early Dismissal in Elementary Schools: All schools in the York Region District School Board are committed to improving student achievement and well-being. On Thursday, June 26, an early release day will take place to allow elementary staff to take part in meetings during the afternoon of that day. These meetings will allow for school staff to engage in culminating activities regarding the review and revision of the School’s Improvement Plan as well as year-end and transition activities that support student success.
As has been our practice in the past, students will attend school during the morning of Thursday, June 26 only. Students will be dismissed early that day at 11:25am. Arrangements will be made to ensure that students who are normally bussed to and from school will receive transportation at this time. Families whose children attend after school child care should make appropriate arrangements to address this change in schedule.
2025 Bicycle Rodeo - Bicycle Safety Event: Join the York Regional Police service, Road Watch, and other community partners to learn about bicycle safety. Please see the flyer for more information.
Family Feedback Survey on Math Resources: As part of the York Region District School Board’s Math Achievement Action Plan, our school is committed to enhancing student success in mathematics through improved teaching strategies, in-class support, and access to resources.
Your input is valuable in helping us better understand how current resources are supporting your child’s learning and how we can continue to improve. Please take a moment to complete the 2 question Family Feedback Survey on Math Resources and share your thoughts on the math resources available to your child to support learning at home and in the classroom. Please complete this survey by Friday, June 6, 2025.
Summer Fair Pre-Orders: Like last year, families will have the option to pre-order pizza combos and bubble tea through SchoolCash Online. Combos will include two slices of pizza (pepperoni, cheese, veggie or deluxe) and and a choice of bottled water, Pepsi or ginger ale for drink. All orders will take place on SchoolCash Online. Watch for the email and be sure to order by the deadline date of Monday, June 9.
Request for Silent Auction Items and/or Sharing of Talents: As our BLPS School Council works to prepare for our Summer Fair, they have asked us to share two requests with our parent/guardian community:
- We are looking for donated items for a silent auction with our theme of ‘Summer Fun’. Donations can be dropped off at the main office any time before Monday, June 6. If you have questions, please reach out to Mrs. Dillon or Ms. Kuk.
- We are seeking talented members of our school community to volunteer to share their talents at our Summer Fair. If you have a special skill (e.g., face painting, Henna, balloon animals etc.) and would be willing to give your time to share it at the Summer Fair, please email us at bond.lake.ps@yrdsb.ca
Student Pick-Up: A reminder to all families that the end of the school day is a very busy time and all staff are actively engaged in supporting students to prepare for the transition home. To help ensure student safety, we ask that parents/guardians not pick students up between 2:00-2:25 pm.
