Hello LVR families, 

We have a semester completion day coming up this Monday, January 26th. Regular classes will not be running. In most cases, students do not attend; rather, a turn around day is used for students to catch up on assignments, or complete any overdue work for their classes. 

We will also be running two sets of provincial assessments: 
All students who are currently taking English 10 in semester 1 will have their provincial literacy 10 assessment in the gym starting at 8:40am. 

All students  who are currently taking English 12 in semester 1 will have their provincial literacy 12 assessment in the gym starting at 12:20pm.

Otherwise, your family can use this day to recharge from the last push of the first semester and get ready for semester 2 that starts on Tuesday, January 27th. 

Finally, Semester 1 report cards will be posted to the Family Portal on Friday, February 6, by 3:00 p.m.

Exciting news, LV is starting a citizenship award! 

Staff will nominate students in grade 10 - 12 each semester to win an award based on one of the following 5 categories: Leadership, Empathy, Courage, Integrity, or Resilience. 

Students who are nominated at the end of the semester will be mailed an award right around when report cards are uploaded to the family portal. 

We will still have our top academic awards, but the new LVR Award will help us better celebrate all the amazing students at LV doing really great work for our school community.
