Science Fair Congratulations

Congratulations to John N and James N who not only participated in the district science fair, but earned the right to compete at the regional science fair in Kelowna!

John, who is in grade 9 at ConnectED, did his project on how he thinks our eyes will evolve as a result of the different screens (computer, TV etc) that we are exposed to everyday.

James, who is in grade 8 at ConnectED, did his project on an innovation that he has come up with to help to repair the Ozone layer.  The regional science fair takes place at the University of British Columbia Okanagan (UBC-O) on April 11th and 12th.  Great work boys, and best of luck in Kelowna!

Spring Break

Just a reminder that ConnectED, as with the other SD 67 schools, will be closed over spring break.  Schools are closed from March 19th - 30th.  April 2nd is the first day back.  Students are welcome to continue to work on their courses over the break.  However, work submitted over the break will not be marked until school resumes.

I hope you enjoy the break!
