TAPS is running a canned and non-perishable food drive for Goodfellows from Dec 1–12, and we’re aiming for 1,500+ items to support local families this holiday season. Each day has a fun theme (Taco Tuesday, Snack Attack, Macaroni Monday, Toy Thursday and more), but any shelf-stable donations are welcome on any day. The class that brings in the most items will win a pizza party, so let’s fill those boxes and show how much our school community cares.

The Ontario Ministry of Education asks all school boards to conduct anonymous school climate surveys on a regular basis to help schools:
Assess perceptions of safety, mental health, and well-being from students, parents/caregivers, and school staff
Make informed planning decisions to promote safe and inclusive school environments
Evaluate the effectiveness of current programs
Build and sustain a positive school climate
Continue to strengthen parent/guardian voice in school communities
The Lambton Kent District School Board is required to conduct school climate surveys of students, staff, and parents/caregivers at least once every two years, as each group plays a key role in shaping a safe and welcoming school environment.
We invite you, as a parent/caregiver of an LKDSB student, to visit your child’s school website or the LKDSB main website and follow the School Climate Survey link to participate. Your feedback helps us build and sustain a positive school climate within your school community.
🗓️ Survey Dates: Monday, November 24 to Friday, December 5, 2025
Please note that all responses are anonymous and confidential. The results will be used by our Safe Schools team and the Board to guide future planning and support.
Thank you for your time and participation.

Wear BLUE for World Diabetes Day! 💙
Let’s unite as a school community to show our support for everyone affected by diabetes—students, staff, and families—by wearing blue on November 14th for World Diabetes Day. This year’s theme is “Diabetes and Well-being,” reminding us that diabetes impacts not just our bodies, but our minds and emotions too. By wearing blue, we help raise awareness, fight stigma, and spread compassion for those managing diabetes every day. Thank you for helping us create a supportive and caring environment!
