Grandview Heights Update
To Grandview Heights Parents and Students,
I hope this communication finds you healthy and enjoying the summer days.  The purpose of  this email is to provide you with a few school updates and an outline of information to come in our Mid-August newsletter.
Our Admin team and office staff have finally moved into the building and I would like to welcome Steve Cowan, our second Vice Principal, and Odette Silvestre, our Student Information Management Clerk.  Although we have moved into the building we are not quite ready to receive any visitors just yet.  Please be patient and if you have any questions please contact us by email or phone rather than stopping by.  We hope by Mid-Agust we will have an opportunity to provide more access to the school to students and parents.
We are still in the process of receiving all of our furniture and equipment, and there are many trades people still working on the finishing touches throughout the school.  Every day the building is looking more complete and we cannot wait for all of our students to see our amazing school, inside and out.  We are on track and scheduled to open on September 7, 2021. 
I will be sending out more information in our August Newsletter covering the following topics:
I look forward to providing you with more information in August and I hope that you have a chance to spend time together as a family, and with friends over the next two months.  Rest up, rejuvenate, and relax, as before you know it, September 7 will be here. I look forward to meeting all our students and working together for a successful year ahead. 
Take care
Darren Bedard
