1. We wanted to take this opportunity to remind everyone to be aware of others when they are walking to and from school. We have heard from a parent that a student was approached last week by someone that they didn’t know and asked if they wanted a ride. In this case, it was reported to the RCMP and dealt with. This is just a reminder to never go with someone you don’t know and to make sure that you tell a trusted adult as soon as possible.
