CRCS REVIEW FOR SNOW/EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS THAT CAUSE SCHOOL CLOSURE

Review of Procedures . . .

 CRCS does not liaise with School District (SD 72) to cancel school due to weather events.

 

Phone contact is not used to inform families of a school closure. Parents/Guardians and CRCS staff must check the school website www.crcs.bc.ca to see if school has been cancelled.

 

Context . . .

If a serious weather event occurs overnight that makes it dangerous to go to and from school, a ‘School Closure Notice’ will be posted on our website ‘early’, prior to the start of school to keep families informed.

 

Except . . .

If extreme weather occurs once school is in session to force a school closure (which may also cancel school bus service), the office will email families and students will call their parents/guardians for pick up (all classrooms have phones for students to use). Some staff will remain at school until all students have been picked up.

 

Be Cautious . . .

When snow/weather events occur that are not severe enough to cancel school, everyone is urged to choose safety first!

If you feel it is unsafe to travel from your area to school, please stay home (and please remember to report student absence(s) for that day).

PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
JANUARY 2025

 

We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.” Psalms 16:9



HAPPY NEW YEAR, CRCS Community! 

 

A new year always seems to give us a sense of excitement, of fresh starts, of great possibilities! I like planning and plotting to make those New Year’s dreams come true! I even buy a paper year planner each year and I enjoy filling up the pages with all my plans. However, I have learned that sometimes things do not go the way I had anticipated. I have also learned, by experience, that trying to tackle multiple grandiose plans all at once does not tend to end in long term success on any level. These days, I tend to start small AND, more importantly, to seek the Lord’s guidance and wisdom as to which plans I should focus on and the appropriate timing for them! Amazingly enough, when I have sought the Lord’s guidance first, those plans have ended in success and I have felt energized and ready for the next task. I hope that our students, especially our Gr.12s who can now see Graduation in the distance, will likewise make their plans but that they will seek the Lord’s guidance since ultimately, it is He who determines our steps.

 

January is a busy month for all grades as we jump back into the learning after a few weeks of fun and relaxation.

 

So, here's to a new year – lots of possibilities! Lots of things to consider and try out! May the Lord guide us along the way! It’s going to be a great year! May the Lord bless you and make His face to shine upon you!

 

In Christ’s service,

Bérénice MacKenzie

Principal
