Once a month on a Wednesday we go home early. We leave at 2:45.

(There is a little more to Early Dismissal than that...This is the first year that this opportunity has been provided by our school division, for teachers to join other colleagues, usually within their own school, to form PLCs (Professional Learning Communities). Each PLC has its own focus and goals, short or long-term, and meets throughout the year. To allow teachers the time to meet, students leave school one hour earlier than usual, one day a month, for 8 of the 10 months of the school year. This has been an extremely worthwhile opportunity where many of us have learned so much! ~ Mrs. Tervoort)
