Welcome Back! Curriculum Night!

Welcome back to another wonderful school year at 

Michael Cranny Elementary School. 

Though school has just gotten underway, we are already off to an amazing start, starting with a successful whole school 'Daily Physical Activity' daily before the lunch hour and raising money for cancer research with our annual Terry Fox School Run.

We wanted to remind our families that this Thursday, September 28th is our Annual Curriculum Night. Please meet in the gym at 6:45 p.m. for a Welcome and then you will be able to visit your child(ren)'s classroom and teacher(s).

We look forward to seeing everyone there and to another successful school year!

Early Dismissal on June 29, 2017

RE:  June 29, 2017 - Early Release Day

All schools in the York Region District School Board are committed to improving student achievement and well-being.  On Thursday, June 29, 2017 an early release day will take place to allow elementary teachers and support staff to take part in meetings during the afternoon of that day.  These meetings will allow for school staff to engage in culminating activities regarding the review and revision of the School’s Improvement Plan as well as year-end and transition activities that support student success.   

As has been our practice in the past, students will attend school during the morning of Thursday, June 29, 2017 only.  Students will be dismissed early that day at 11:05 a.m..  Arrangements will be made to ensure that students who are normally bused to and from school will receive transportation at this time.  Parents/guardians whose children attend after school child care should make appropriate arrangements to address this change in schedule.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the office.

Summer Programs

It may still be cold and snowy outside, but it’s not too early to think about summer opportunities for students.

The York Region District School Board Summer Institute is a program that offers academic, recreational and athletic programs and activities with intentional links to the Ontario Curriculum for children and youth entering Senior Kindergarten to Grade 8.  Many students take advantage of these summer recreational and learning opportunities, which run weekly sessions from July 4th through August 11, 2017.  For more details, please visit the Summer Institute webpage.

As well, this summer the York Region District School Board is offering a summer school program for students currently in grades 7 and 8.  Offerings include grade 7 and 8 reinforcement programs in literacy and math, as well as grade 7 and 8 reinforcement programs in literacy and math for students with an Individual Education Plan (IEP) and for English Language Learners. Registration for these reinforcement programs is done through Career Cruising.

Chess Club is an opportunity for students from grades 4-6 to experience the academic and social benefits of playing chess.  Club members will have the opportunity to play older and younger opponents, and experience a variety of different skill levels and challenges. The goal is for all the club members to become stronger players and develop new strategies of playing the game.
