Glebe Collegiate Institute School Council

Glebe Collegiate Institute School Council will be holding a Parent/Guardian Information Night in the Library on Thursday May 5th (7 - 8:30 p.m.) on potential risks and dangers our children face when using the internet and a role for parents.

As Semester 2 draws near parents/guardians and students are encouraged to come out and meet  their new teachers. This is a great opportunity to make connections, hear about the curriculum and confirm expectations!  Due to the time of this event light refreshments will be available upon arrival!

Who:  All Parents/ Guardians and students of GCI

The OCDSB is renewing their Strategic Plan for 2011-2015 and they want your input to help them make the right choices about how to deliver programs and services in the coming years.
The whitepaper suggests changes, including the removal of specialty programs and middle schools, that may have a significant effect on Glebe. The six consultations forums are on:

Location: School Library (North-West corner of basement)

A gift that keeps on giving

Make a donation to Glebe Collegiate Institute and we will recognize it with a seat plaque in your name (or someone else's name). It will live on a back of a seat in Glebe's newly refurbished auditorium. Every donation will bring Glebe School Council one step closer to reaching our fundraising goal of $15,000 to help pay for auditorium improvements. You will also receive a tax receipt for the charitable donation.

Make Your Mark at Glebe!

The Ottawa-Carleton Assembly of School Councils (OCASC) will be hosting an information session on the IPRC process.  The presentation is for OCDSB parents/guardians of children with all exceptionalities.

At a Special Meeting of the Board on 5 January 2010, the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board adopted a new cross boundary transfer policy. This policy comes after months of policy review, public consultation and committee deliberation.
