* New Food and Beverage Standards Last year, the Ministry of Education released a new School Food and Beverage Policy, which very clearly details what type of foods and beverages may be sold in a school. At Elgin St., we are encouraging parents to read the synopsis, and help support the standards when planning to send food to school for special celebrations, such as birthday parties. We do want to celebrate with your child, but are inviting you to think of special non-food treats such as sparkly pencils or stickers if you want
to send something for classmates. NS_fact_sheet_ENG_final.pdf
* Allergen Reminders: - Our school is a fragrant sensitive environment. Please refrain from wearing any perfumed products in the school. - Please be careful when sending in your child's lunch to ensure that any product that contains peanuts or could contain nut products stay at home. - Peanut Butter Substitute Parent Advisory!! The following is a statement released from the WRDSB => PeanutButter.pdf

No Dogs on Property |
 We love our 4 legged friends! However we are asking you to be considerate of the safety of children at school and request that you please leave your
dogs at home when coming to school, or stop at the edge of the property if you have chosen to walk your dog to school. We have had a number of issues with dogs this year, and they have created some unsafe situations. “No Dogs on Property” signs will be posted this summer and will be reinforced by staff and the administration of the school. |

The student login feature on our website will be available for use August 22, 2011. Parents and students will be able to login and view their transportation details for the next school year. Visit the site

Since most JK students will not have an OEN number prior to September, STSWR will be sending a direct mail out to the families of Junior and Senior Kindergarten students that will be transported next year. That information will be mailed out during the week of August 22nd. A direct mail out will also be sent in August to the families with special needs students that will be transported in September.
