Help! We are desperate to find a summer camp manager. A high school grad or MUN Student to lead our Ukrainian Summer Day Camp. We have all funding, venue, junior counselors, Ukrainian kids confirmed. Just missing the manager. $20.00 per hour. Lots of fun activities.

Our grade 6 food truck festival was a success! @msMbartlett @NewtownElem

What a way to end out the school year and start the summer. 🌞Our 8’s and 9’s had a stellar time at @echopond_centre with Finch, Juniper, Lupin and Denali! @NLESDCA @TATwolves

Pale Blue Dot is a photo of Earth that was taken by the Voyager 1 space probe in 1990 from a distance of about 6 billion kilometers (3.7 billion miles) as it was leaving our solar system. This is what Carl Sagan said about the photo: "Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor, and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every 'superstar,' every 'supreme leader,' every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there — on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”

The NLESD is grateful for the encouragement from the community for inclusive education. Our leadership will be at Confederation Building tomorrow in a show of support for all of our students/staff. We condemn the hatred directed at our schools, most recently at @StMattsTigers

Due to hundreds of uncontrolled wildfires across Canada, New York City looks like a post-apocalyptic hellscape. If you want a prelude of what the world is going to look like if we do not address man-made climate change — this is it. #ActOnClimate

They won't call it a ban. Yet not only has my book been moved, but now elementary schoolers must request a copy from a specialist at its new site AND then also PROVE their reading level before seeing a copy. All these hurdles for a young reader just to access a poem in history written for them. @MDCPS , history is not ours to hoard from children. History has always been theirs to make. And the more they're empowered to know our yesterdays, the more prepared they will be to lead us into tomorrow.

Can’t wait for the spring concert! Mrs Boland and the 7-11 band have something SUPER GROOVY prepared! @TATwolves @NLESDCA
