Dear Grand Erie families,
As we get ready to say goodbye to 2023 and greet the new year, I want to share my best wishes with our students and families across this beautiful region. May this holiday season fill your hearts and homes with peace and joy. May you cherish the moments spent with loved ones and find warmth in laughter, memories made and meals shared. May we embrace the spirit of kindness, generosity and gratitude as we prepare to welcome new opportunities. May the year ahead offer much growth, achievement, and inspiration.
Wishing you and your loved ones a holiday filled with hope, happiness and the beauty of the winter season.
From our Grand Erie family to yours, happy holidays!
Sincerely,
JoAnna Roberto, Ph.D.

We are an Eco-School
Did you know our school is an eco-school? Well we are, and that means that our school is making efforts every day to stay green. Some of the things our energy efficiency group is doing include implementing eco-friendly browsers, starting lights out lunches every Monday and Friday, creating signs for lights and monitors, and adding important information to our school website about being eco-friendly. We're also having a fun sweater day where we’re lowering the temperature of the school by two degrees and we will all wear sweaters. We’re also adding Ecosia to all our browsers. Ecosia is a company that plants a tree for every forty-five searches on the internet. Students are also making fifteen signs and posting them around the school, to remind people to turn off lights and monitors. Sweater day will be held on the 29th of November, and the 16th and 17th of December. Remember to check the school website for more cool information about how we are going eco-friendly, and the steps to become a platinum school, and to watch a video about implementing eco-friendly habits. Always remember to stay green!
From,
The Energy Efficiency Team of École Confédération
