Welcome to 7.5 split
Please do not hesitate to contact me with your questions or concerns.
Dear Parents,
Welcome to a brand new school year! Seventh and eight grade is an exciting time as your child embarks upon new adventures as he/she continues the journey in the world of learning. This is a year of important transitions. Your child will be encouraged to work more independently as he/she develops a greater sense of responsibility in many areas.
Over the course of the year, your child will improve their language skills and learn about a variety of subjects. I hope to make your child’s learning experiences a fun and exciting one and establish a lasting love of learning.
Here are some ways you can help your child succeed this year:
- Celebrate your child’s success, no matter how small it may seem. This will keep him/her enthusiastic about learning and proud of their work.
- Ensure that your child gets enough rest, exercise and a balanced diet. Please encourage him/her to bring a water bottle filled with fresh water daily.
- Remind your child to charge his/her laptop at home, so that they are prepared each day to use it as a tool for learning.
It is extremely important that your child have an agenda or be proficient in using a digital device to record homework. At this level it is expected that he/she records homework independently.
The homework load will vary throughout the year. There will be a variety of projects and presentations to prepare. If your child has unfinished work from class, it should be completed at home.
Parent Tips
I encourage you as parents/guardians to be actively involved in your child's school life. I believe when parents and teachers work together, children can be successful in their learning.
- Please visit powerschool bi-weekly so that you are up to date with your child’s assignments, class schedule/timelines, attendance, and marks. You will have to use their login information to access this information.

I am looking forward to working with you and your child in Grade Seven and 8!
Sincerely,
Jean-François Bolduc (Mr. Jeff)
