Welcome to
Ecole Parkside School
2011-2012
Welcome to the 2011-2012 school year. The time spent in junior high centers on self-discovery for our students. During grade 7 and 8, students explore who they want to be as young adults and how their relationships support and affect this sense of identity. I love this time of change and energy it creates in our building. Students work tirelessly to push adults away from them in order to shape their budding independent identity. It is an exciting and social time for them. For adults it can be easy to get hooked by the emotional energy students in junior high exhibit. I hope as parents, you too, can find the positive in the changing nature of your child. Students at this age need their parents, teachers and other adults to remain calm, positive and help them to view situations from all perspectives. Please help us to work on this with your child.
We have a commitment to honour three core values in our school: respect, responsibility and integrity. As you review our agenda book, please note the definitions we have highlighted about these values.
My hope is that each student will discover their strengths of character and contribute to our school community in helpful and purposeful ways. Please celebrate these accomplishments with us.
Leanne Braun, Principal
