***************
Principal’s Report May 2016
1. Timetabling for 16/17 school year is now complete. Students will receive their timetables over the coming weeks. Timetable changes will only be considered if a student was unsuccessful in a compulsory course, or if we made an error with a choice.
2. We are on track for graduation. Planning is going very well.
3. We have been having some discussions with staff and students about the Dress Code. We would ask for parental support with this school expectation
4. This past year the students of SCI along with the guidance of SCI Staff ventured on the journey of identifying who we are and what we value as an SCI community.
The students came up with the following:
Spirit
Community
Integrity
Looking forward to seeing you all in the fall. Have a great summer!
