LVR Weekly Update - 21Apr25
Good day out there, LVR Community.
This week's pics come from Mr. Munby's Anatomy & Physiology (Biology) 12 class and their 'kahoot contest' in which the winning team supplied wigs for the losing team to wear!
Bussing families, be sure to read the announcement for registering for bussing for the 2025-26 school year. All students requesting SD8 school busing privileges MUST register annually.
Course selections for next school year are now mostly completed and Mr. Wyllie and I are moving into scheduling for 2025-26. If you have not yet submitted your course requests for 2025-26, please see Mr. Wyllie or Secretary Jules ASAP to have yours included in the scheduling process.
Please be sure pay student fees for new semester 2 courses that started last week. Payments can be made in-person to Secretary Arlene or through our online make a payment tool.
