Welcome to the P177Q Parent Newsletter!

P177Q Parents,
We are very pleased to welcome you and your child to the start of a very exciting 2021 summer program! We are excited about the summer and all that we will experience together. We know how important your child is to you and we want you to know that they are very important to us, as well.
This summer will be a very busy one for our students as they will be fully immersed in our summer theme, “Sustainability.” Your child will be learning and exploring nature and natural resources with their peers and teachers. The culminating activities will have each class create a virtual presentation to showcase all the Sustainability learning that they have done.
Your child will also participate in many fun and engaging virtual trips and sustainability experiences during the summer. More information will be given by the classroom teacher in the next few days. Let’s have a safe and fun summer of learning and sharing!
Sincerely,
Christopher Duffy
Principal
