Dear Parents/Guardians:
Welcome to Sifton School. Sifton is a school that prides itself on serving the needs of its students and the community. We have many volunteers and I believe it is one of the cornerstones of our success. We have an active parent advisory council and these parents offer valuable insight into the operation of the school. These meetings are held the first Monday of every month and all parents are cordially invited to attend.
Agenda books help you to stay informed of your child's progress. Please read these over every night and use these as a source of information. These agenda books are designed to explain to you the progress of your child and offer suggestions on how to ensure they enjoy academic success. Also, you will receive a monthly newsletter updating you on the important programs and events in and around our school.
At Sifton our Instructional Focus is: Reading is the Key and Writing Opens the Door! Our staff works tirelessly to ensure your child is learning how to read and write. You can be a major part of our work by having your child read with you in the evenings as part of our Reading to the Stars Program. We also have a character education program at our school where we celebrate the traits of responsible citizenship.
Our door is open. Please feel free to come and see us at any time. The Assistant Principal, Ms Lorraine Goruk, and the Administrative Assistant, Mrs. Colette Corbiere are the other two important members of our leadership team. We look forward to meeting you.
David Kun
Principal
