SKI TRIP REMINDER

Just a friendly reminder to register for the upcoming ski trip if you haven’t already.  Monday is the final day to register online, on Mrs. Couse’s blog.  http://bcouse.edublogs.org/ski-trip-registration-2/  Please also return the signed consent forms to the classroom teacher by this Monday.

Tuesday and Wednesday (Jan. 19th and 20th) are the payment days.  There will be a table set up in the school lobby from 3:10-3:45.  You can make payment with a cheque (written out to Highroad Academy), your student reserve account, Debit card, or cash.  Please do NOT pay at the office.  If you cannot make these dates, you can send the pre-written cheque to the lobby with the student, or make an alternate plan with Mrs. Couse by email.  All payments must be made by Weds. at 3:45.

Thank you for your assistance with this.  We are looking forward to an exciting ski trip with as many intermediate students and their parents as possible.  Remember there is a “free” option of tobogganing.
