SCDSB Parent Portal is a secure online tool that provides
parents/guardians (of students less than 18 years of age) with quick
access to their children's attendance and, in secondary school, grades.
Parents and guardians can set up daily, weekly or monthly email alerts
for attendance information.</p><p style="font:13px/1.6 arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 10px;color:#595959;text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;word-spacing:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;">To
access the Parent Portal, parents/guardians will need their child's
Student Number, which can be found on the Student Information
Verification Form sent home at the start of every school year, as well
as an Access ID.</p><p style="font:13px/1.6 arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 10px;color:#595959;text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;word-spacing:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;">The

Parent/Guardian has created a Parent Portal account, all students can be
linked to that single account.</p><p style="font:13px/1.6 arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 10px;color:#595959;text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;word-spacing:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;">Go to <a target="_blank" href="http://ps.scdsb.on.ca/" style="color:#0072b9;text-decoration:none;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">http://ps.scdsb.on.ca</span></a> to create a Parent Portal account or login.</p></span> | | | |

</span></strong><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"arial", sans-serif;">School
Bus Safety Week takes place October 22 to 26, 2018. To support schools in
promoting school bus safety to students, the Simcoe County Student
Transportation Consortium (SCSTC), in partnership with school bus operators,
will offer bus evacuation training to all home-to-school transported students.<strong>
</strong>During this week,<strong> </strong>school bus drivers will educate students on how to
evacuate a school bus safely in an emergency situation. Wed., Oct. 24 is School
Bus Driver Appreciation Day in the province of Ontario. It’s a great
opportunity for the school community to thank our bus drivers for all their
hard work transporting students to and from school safely. For more
information, visit the SCSTC website at <a href="http://main.simcoecountyschoolbus.ca/">main.simcoecountyschoolbus.ca/</a>.</span></p> | | | |

our school. This school year, we are implementing a new online Volunteer

is a new online portal that allows you to begin the process for volunteering at
our school. Here is some information to share as we’ve been receiving some
questions:</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"arial", sans-serif;"> </span></p><ul style="margin-top:0in;"><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"arial", sans-serif;">Only NEW volunteers or those
who received a letter in June indicating you require an updated Criminal
Background Check Vulnerable Sector Screening (5-year renewal) are able to
register as a volunteer on the Community Apps website at this time.</span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"arial", sans-serif;">If you’re a current,
approved school volunteer, you can still volunteer at our school for the
