Kate Reid is amazing!

Mrs. Klassen saw Kate Reid's performance at Bozzini's lounge on February 9.  Kate is awesome, funny and so talented with the guitar & harmonica!  Check out the links to hear/see some of her songs.  Can't wait until April 4!

OUTShine Here We Come!

The SSS GSA  has been selected to send a delegation to the first national GSA conference in Canada!  Mrs. Klassen and Maecyn will be attending the conference over the May long weekend.  We have already started fundraising to cover conference registration and flight costs.  Maecyn will be reporting back to Alliance members and may present to the staff as well after the conference.  What an opportunity!  Thank you to Mr. Testa and many Sardis Secondary staff who have offered their congratulations and financial support:)

Gearing up for Semester 2!

We've set a tentative date for the Kate Reid performance:  April 4.  The Be the Change Committee is willing to work with us to help cover costs and support the message.  Kate will be performing at Bozzini's restaurant in the lounge upstairs (adults only) if your parents are interested in checking her out.

There will be no meeting during the exam week (whew!), but you are welcome to contact me by email if you have any questions or concerns that can't wait:)

We will be applying to go to the OutShine conference and may need to step up our fundraising efforts if we are accepted.  Advertisements for the FIRST NATIONAL GSA CONFERENCE are posted in C125, in the hallway, in Ms. Irani's room and the counselling area.  Visit MyGSA (link below) for more information.

Sherlock showings will begin again on February 14, Valentine's Day.  Party!
