It’s been quite the year! We’re so proud of our students & staff for rising to the challenge of learning in a pandemic, taking care of one another & still finding ways to have fun. Best of luck to our grade 8s. Everyone else, we’ll see you in September! #schoolsoutforsummer

Due to record-breaking temperatures, we have made the difficult decision to close all schools to students Monday, June 28. While we do not make this decision lightly, the health and safety of our students is always our primary consideration @CBC @TriCityNews @NEWS1130 @CKNW

Stop by one of our branches to pick up one of our new sling backpacks! They're perfect for outdoor summer adventures, and they're waiting for you at our Help Desks. 🎒
