Hi, everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, please read all the important updates and information items below – there are a lot this week! I have heard through many avenues that this first week of school went pretty smoothly, and I hope you\u2019ve had a good week. (Dave \u2013 my 14-year-old niece was super jazzed about her first week of high school in Saanich!) I also saw some great welcome messages (Mark in SD 36 and Chris in SD 44 to name just a couple).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is my last DM update to all of you and I wanted to leave you with a photo of my new favourite hoodie that I know you will appreciate. :- ) You can contact ADM Cloe Nicholls or ED Kiersten Fisher if you would like to order one \u2013 could be a good fundraiser! Seriously, FESL is the heart of the work we all do to provide meaningful and equitable access to education for all the students who are with you and districts now, and the ones who are on their way (and probably thriving in one of your child care facilities or programs!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you again for your leadership and commitment. I look forward to seeing you around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a great weekend,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
