Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test
I want to thank all of our staff for their organizing efforts in preparing our students for success on the OSSLT. All grade 10 students across the province wrote the test last Thursday, March 31st. Our students were well prepared, and their feedback on their experience was positive. We will receive the results of each student’s test closer to the end of the year. A special thank you to Ms. McGilchrist who oversaw the organization of student preparation activities and the test itself.Elementary Curling Championships
Four grade 7 boys from All Saints will be participating in the Timbits Elementary Curling Championships from April 7 to April 10 in Gananoque. They will be competing against 54 teams from all across Ontario. Good luck gentlemen!
