EUROPE TRIP - IMPORTANT UPDATE

On Monday Dec 13 at lunch there will be a very important meeting in Room 261 (Miss Jewson's room).

At this meeting you will recieve details regarding your final payment.  In addition, you should come prepared to give Miss Jewson your roommate preferences for hotel bookings while we are in Europe.  I will need details for double, triple and quad occupancy (some hotels have us 2 to a room, 3 to a room and 4 to a room depending on size). 

If you miss the meeting, you will be placed in any room that has space.

Listen to announcements for reminders!

CGW 4U & CHY 4U/C ISP

Hi Guys

I hope you are enjoying your snow days!

CGW 4U

Independent studies are due today in World Issues.  I DO NOT expect you to bring them to the school today.  If you hand your paper in on the first day we are back in class, I will consider it to be "on time" (Meaning you didnt use grace days, and your paper will have marking priority).  However, grace days begin today.  The absolute final deadline remains December 15th.

 

CHY 4U/C

You ISP papers are due on Friday,  If we are not back to school by then (I cant imagine that we wont be, but you never know) the same rules will apply to you (ie: If you hand the paper in on the first day back, it will not be considered late, but the final deadline stays firm).  If you would like me to read over your paper prior to handing it in, you should email it to me today at sarajews@fc.amdsb.ca

Enjoy the snow!

Dear Europe Trippers

Since we now have snow, your thoughts may be turning to your list for Santa.  If you have asked for luggage to take on our trip in March, be sure to have him check the following dimensions so that your bag will make it on the plane!
