I hope everyone had an enjoyable and restful Christmas break. I would like to wish all of you a Happy New Year and all the best for 2012. There are a few things that I would like to mention in this month’s newsletter that are relevant as we wrap up semester one and get ready for the start of the second semester.
The basketball season has started up and I would like to wish all of our teams and coaches the best of luck. I would also like to thank all of our coaches for volunteering their time and working with our athletes. If you have the opportunity, I would like to encourage you to come out and watch our teams play. Their schedules can be found on our schools’ website.
Wm. E. Hay has been asked to participate in Alberta Education's Re-Thinking High School On-line Symposium on January 18, 2012. Wm. E. Hay will be organizing the session on Teacher Advisory. This is a great honour for our school to be asked to discuss the importance of Teacher Advisory in improving education for students in Alberta. If you are interested in participating in this webinar, please check out the Alberta Education website.
In January, administration will be resuming meetings for our student and parent focus groups. Wm. E. Hay has been using focus groups as one method to hear the voices of both our student population and our parents. The focus group provides an excellent opportunity to have a voice in improving education at Wm. E. Hay. If you are interested in being part of the parent focus group, please contact me.
Final exams will be starting soon. Please check the exam schedule included in this newsletter to make sure that there are no confusions on the dates and times of your exams. All grade 12 Diploma Exams and Grade 9 PAT’s will be written in rooms 202, 204 and the Flex Room. The last day of regular classes for grade 12 students will be on Wednesday January 18th.

Good luck to all students and I hope that everyone does well on their final exams.
