Dear Parents / Guardians,
Just a reminder that the YMCA Academy Curriculum Night as well as a Tour of our New Home is this Thursday (Oct 13th):
The tour will start at 6pm for any of our Parents, Guardians and Students that would like to see and tour our new facilities at 15 Breadalbane Street, 3rd Floor. Our guests will then have the option to stay for light refreshments to visit with fellow Academy families and staff and have a brief break before the Curriculum Night Presentation begins. Our Curriculum Night consists of a general overview of information related to planning for post-secondary education, secondary school graduation requirements (including Community Involvement requirements), and Cooperative Education. We will also speak about the IEP and IPRC processes. All Parents, Guardians and current Students are welcome to come to either the tour, Curriculum Night or to stay for both.
