News and Notices

Term 3 is right around the corner here at HCOS!  It is during this last term that, believe it or not, families are thinking about next year!  Yep - next year!  And so here are a few bits of news and notices to help you (you may want to use this as a check list of sort).

1. Finish up term 2 by passing in term 2 portfolios by end of February - please let me know when and how you plan on submitting them.
2. Re-enrol: The office is ready for re-enrolment.  Please go into Encom and inform the office of your intentions for next year.  As you may know, HCOS continues to grow each year and knowing who is returning will help our admin decide how many more teachers to hire.
3. Register for CHEC, Christian Home Educator's Convention - April 29 & 30, in Kelowna, BC!  Yes, registration is open!  New this year is a "High School Fair"!  Click on the link to the right of the main page of my blog. For the last couple of years, we have planned a field trip to somewhere in the lower mainland while we are all driving over anyway.  If you have any ideas, please let me know.  I will keep you posted as plans are arranged.
4. Remember Deadline for Curriculum Funds purchasing.  The deadline to use this year's PO# is May 15.  You will no longer be able to use that number for purchases and any remaining funds can not be transferred to next year.  PO# for next year will be ready by CHEC IF you have re-enrolled and submitted your residency form.

As we head into term 3, many are planning a research report. I found a neat school site that has information on how to cite your work.  There is a range of expectations for each grade level.  Click HERE to check it out!

I hope you have a great weekend and let me know if I can help you get ready for term 3!
