Literacy Test (OSSLT) - May 14th.

The Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test(OSSLT) has been re-scheduled for Tuesday, May 14, 2013. Since this is a graduation requirement, please ensure that your child is in attendance on this day. Students writing the test will come to school as per their normal start time and complete the test. Students not writing the OSSLT will begin their school day at 12:15 pm.

We wish every student success on the OSSLT.
