Hello all Brent Kennedy parents, families and caregivers,

The weeks are flying by and there are officially 2 months left of this school year! The month of May will be a nice time for students to settle into springtime learning activities before the summation of the school year, which brings about culminating academic as well as year end wrap up celebrations.  

We are initiating a recycling program at the school, which will involve intermediate students collecting all paper recycling and then collaborating with Waste Management to help with pick up. The Green Team at LVR will help mentor our intermediates as they get this recycling program going.
