Spirit Day!
On Friday, November 1 there will be a spirit day at Jean Little.
Students can wear their jammies to school on Friday. After a long (and most likely cold) night of trick-or-treating it will be the perfect way to come to school. Even if you do not go out trick-or-treating it is a great way to end the school week!

Open House Night at Jean Little
There will be an open house night on Wednesday, September 18th from 6pm -8pm. Students are welcome to bring their family to the school to show them our classroom and to meet their teachers. Please remember that this is not an interview time as there are many people circulating through the rooms. We look forward to seeing our students and their families :-)
UG Cloud
The Upper Grand District School Board, in collaboration with Google, has created cloud accounts for all our students. The cloud allows students to create and share documents with their peers and teachers. It is a secure site and each student has been assigned a specific username and password to access our cloud. The cloud is carefully monitored to help ensure that all activity is education based. Cloud accounts can be accessed from home by going into the UG2Go website and using the same username and password a student uses to login at school. I am looking forward to exploring all the educational possibilities that the cloud has to offer :-) Students require parental consent to use the ugcloud. A permission slip will be sent home this week (Sept.9-13).
Terry Fox Run / Walk on September 27th
The students have been making posters to help promote the Terry Fox Run / Walk at our school. We are asking that students bring in a small donation to help fund cancer research. The run / walk will be held during the last hour of the school day. There will be a short assembly in the gym and then staff and students will head out to the school yard. Parents and members of the community are welcome to join us!
