Upcoming PAC Meeting – Guest Speaker: Zones of Regulation – May 25th 7:00 PM

Due to conflicting events, the May PAC meeting has been rescheduled to May 25th. All parents and guardians are welcome to the May Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) meeting. The meeting will take place at 7:00 PM in the school library.
This meeting is very special because guest speaker, Bryce Recsky,VSB Behaviour Consultant, will be joining us to speak on self regulation and the zones of regulation program. One of the school’s goals this year was to implement the self-regulation program Zones of Regulation. Early in the year, staff and students began to work with Todd Schleyer, who is a STIBS (Short Term Intensive Behaviour Support) worker from VSB. Come out and learn more about this important initiative.
