Dec 22 - vmc
Dear VMC Families,
Tomorrow is the final day of classes prior to the break. It is a regular school day with activities planned for the afternoon (periods 5, 6 & 7). We would ask you to report all absences by 8:30am on the Mozaik system rather than calling the school. Due to a lack of personnel, the main office will not be able to handle the normal volume of calls and will restrict its activities to assisting students.
Additionally, a reminder that early dismissals (ED) must be reported prior to 8:30 am. After 8:30 am no early dismissal will be accepted. Do not call the main office to request an ED, please enter it in the Mozaik system prior to 8:30am.
If you cannot access Mozaik, please call the school to make your report as it is important that all absences and early dismissals are verified.
We hope that everyone has a restful holiday and we will be ready to greet you in the new year. Happy holidays!
Mozaik system: www.portailparents.ca
Sincerest regards,
Franca Cristiano
Principal

nov 3 - VMC Important: Schedule Change for Monday, November 6th
Dear VMC Families,
I hope this letter finds you well. I wanted to elaborate on the information you received from the EMSB related to the schedule change for Monday, November 6th, due to a strike that will be taking place in our area. On that day, classes will begin at 11:00 am instead of the usual start time. We have made arrangements to ensure that students can be at school in the cafeteria as of 10:40 am, where they will be supervised until classes begin. Once classes commence at 11:00 am, the rest of the day will proceed as normal, with all regular activities and lessons taking place.
We understand that this schedule change may cause some inconvenience, but we want to ensure the safety and well-being of our students during the strike. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter. Thank you for your continued support.
Best regards,
Ms. Cristiano, Principal
