Athletics 

We would like to congratulate the Sr Girls Volleyball team on making it to the semifinals. Great job girls!  

Key Study Guides 

Key Study Guides are booklets to the support learning of students. We have a limited number of Key Study Guides for Chemistry, Math, Science and French available here at the school for purchase. If you are interested in one for your student, please contact your student's teacher.  

Nutrition 

A nutritious lunch has many positive effects on student learning, well-being, and general health. You can help support your student’s learning by ensuring that they are coming to school with the appropriate amount of food to sustain their hunger for the day.  

Student ID Cards 

All students in the building need to have their student ID cards with them at all times. Student identification cards are important for students to have for the school year as we use them to support the sign-out of textbooks and other educational resources. If your student does not have one, please have them go to the main office to get one. If they need a replacement, there is a $5.00 charge.  

Drama  

Tickets are available for our upcoming Winter Drama Production, William Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” on Wednesday, November 22 and Thursday, November 23. The shows start at 7:00pm and will be performed at the YMCA Seton Theatre. The ticket prices are $5 for student and $10 for adults. They can be purchased in the Drama Room (1811) or at the door on the night of the performance. We are so excited to show you what we have been working on this semester.  

“A Midsummer Night’s Dream” is a comedy that follows the story of four rebellious young lovers, a band of ambitious theatre players, and a feuding Fairy King and Queen. All of them cross paths one evening in an enchanted forest and when the mischief-making Puck, the Fairy King’s servant, is ordered to cast spells on everyone, what could go wrong? There is love, jealousy, laughs and utter confusion – what more could you expect from a Shakespeare play! 

We really appreciate your support of the Drama Department and hope to see you all there.

Students should also review the monthly calendar where various upcoming post-secondary events will be posted.  

Are You Ready to Graduate? Grade 12 students attended a presentation regarding Graduation requirements during Raven time on Thursday, November 2 in Period 1. During Raven time on Thursday, November 16 in Period 2, Grade 12 students will be filling out the ‘Are You Ready to Graduate?’ form. This form must be completed by every Grade 12 student and will be collected and submitted to the SSC. Students on spare in Period 2 can pick up a form from the Main Office. 

A University of Alberta Advisor will be at JCS on Monday, November 20 from 3:15pm to 4:15pm to meet one-on-one with interested students.
