Hello Storrington Stingers,
We hope that this email finds you all well and healthy.
Please see the information below in this week’s Week at a Glance.
Black History Month
During the month of February, Storrington students will recognize Black History Month. Black History Month is a way for Canadians to celebrate the many achievements and contributions of Black Canadians. Through their work and dedication, they have helped to enhance and define the Canadian culture and to make Canada into the country that it is today. Please take the time to discuss, with your child, the importance of why we recognize and celebrate Black History Month.

LaSalle Secondary School is holding a Grade 8 to 9 Transition Parent Night on Tuesday, February 15 at 6:00 for any families of Grade 8 students who will be attending LaSalle in September. The meeting can be accessed virtually at: Grade 8 to 9 Transition Information Night.

Valentine’s Day Cards
This year, students are welcome to share Valentine’s Day cards within their own classroom/cohort. We kindly ask that families do not send in treats to be shared.
Confirmation of Daily Screening
Families must diligently screen students for symptoms of COVID-19 using the revised screening tool. As well, each morning, students in Grades 7 and 8 are required to complete the Covid Screener Confirmation. The confirmation is sent daily to Grade 7 and 8 students’ Limestone email accounts. Students should not come to school if they have any symptoms and/or feel sick.
