A Message from the NTCI Parents Mailing List: _______________________________________________
Good evening NT parents: I'm forwarding a message which was sent out to all students by our Student Services department this afternoon. You will find important information regarding the access to technology, course drops, TDSB night school/TDSB eSummer School and information for potential graduates. This is for your information as well. Please encourage your children to read the email and follow up with their Guidance counsellor if they have any questions. Thank you for your continued patience and support. ................ Dear Students, As we move forward in this new remote learning environment, I wanted to send another message to let you know some important dates and new procedures for Guidance. We are hearing from students that you are not all receiving our Moodle blasts. We are working to move over to Google Classroom and when we are ready, we will invite you all to join us there. It is likely that we will create one classroom for Graduating Students and another for students in Grades 9-11. For now, please read this entire email and note the items that are relevant for you. Collecting Email addresses – All students By now your teachers should have sent you a link to a Google Form for us to collect information about your email address and access to devices/internet. It is really important for you to fill in this form if you have not already so that we can help students who need access! Here is the link to the form: https://forms.gle/ii4q9bbtiXM8whwr6 Please note that this form will give us your email address so that you can receive future Guidance emails! Course Drops – Grade 11 and 12 students The last date to drop NT courses before Full Disclosure is April 16, 4pm. (Students may drop courses after this date but the course and the mark will appear as “withdrawn” on your permanent transcript). If you wish to drop a course (or courses), you must fill in this Course Drop Google Form https://forms.gle/UaCqbGU9p68VHH1e7 AND have your parent email michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca<mailto:michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca> with permission for the drop BEFORE 4pm on April 16. TDSB Night School – All students TDSB Night School classes have resumed this week, now operating as remote learning (just like day school). Students wishing to withdraw from night school courses, please email michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca<mailto:michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca> your name, night school location and course. We will inform Continuing Education Central staff and they will demit students. The drop dates are as follows: April 23 for CW Jefferys NS, Central Tech NS, Runnymede NS, Winston Churchill NS (Tuesday/Thursday classes) April 29 for Albert Campbell NS and CALC NS (Monday/Wednesday classes) TDSB eSummer School – All students Students who are interested in registering for TDSB Summer eLearning should note that registration begins April 8. I would like to encourage all students who want, need, or may need a summer credit to consider signing up for TDSB Summer eLearning as it is not known at this time if TDSB regular (face-to-face classroom) Summer School will be running. Session dates, list of courses, and registration is available at https://schoolweb.tdsb.on.ca/elearning/e-Summer-School Students who have applied to TDSB eSummer School MUST forward their registration email with the attached permission form to their parent/guardian who MUST then forward that email and their permission to michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca<mailto:michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca> Elearning summer school courses will NOT be approved without emailed parent permission. (Please note that students 18 years and older should simply forward their registration email directly to michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca<mailto:michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca> noting that they are 18). Information for Graduating Students Please click on the following link to access the Scholarship Report and note that there are several opportunities in the next two months: Link to The Scholarship Report<https://seekingscholarships.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=552c1fb49a547f66f1c461dbe&id=f3687cea04&e=45588607eb>. Students who need a credit to graduate watch for our email to come about Dual Credit intersession courses (May/June) which will be available online. Graduating students will not be required to complete Community Service hours this year. Graduating students are not required to complete the Literacy Requirement this year. Updated course marks that reflect achievement up to March 13 (which may also include more recent work demonstrating further successful achievement of expectations) will be sent to OUAC/OCAS for the April transmission. Private school FINAL report cards MUST be emailed directly from the school to michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca<mailto:michelle.debr...@tdsb.on.ca> by 4pm April 20 (per Agenda p.13) in order to be included in the OUAC/OCAS transmission. (To ensure we have received all FINAL report cards and updated your transcript, we recommend you have your private school email us any FINAL report card earned after March 1). I know that’s a lot of information to read but it is all very important for you to have now. This is a challenging time. I know for some of you that school can be a bit of normalcy in a changed world and it brings you some comfort; I know for others it is another source of stress among so many stressful things. Please know that we are here to help, regardless of how this situation is impacting you and your families.
