Online learning resources now available
Learning
is always a priority for our students. We, recognize, however, that
the COVID-19 situation is a stressful time for families and
children/youth.
Some
teachers may choose to provide learning materials to students
virtually, however, there is no expectation they do so, nor that
students complete any work at this time. We know that not all families
have access to, or the capacity for, online learning from home.
The Ministry of Education has launched Learn at Home, an online portal, of educational resources to support student learning during the closure.
The Limestone District School Board has also compiled a list of supplemental resources
to help engage students and families. Please use these resources as an
option to support your child’s learning and well-being, in addition to
the Ministry's resources.

Sign up for School-Day: Permissions & Payments!
Limestone is excited to offer our families a new secure portal to complete permissions and payments online. With School-Day: Permissions & Payments, you will be able to complete permission forms and payments from any web browser using your SmartPhone, tablet, laptop or desktop.
Through this new online portal, you will be able to pay for items such as:
- Field trips
- Sporting events
- Student cards/athletic fees
- Hot lunch (where applicable)
The new easy-to-use portal will remove the risks associated with sending money to school with students, the frustration of lost or missing permission forms, and significantly reduce the amount of paper our school consumes.
Look for the School-Day Introduction Letter coming home with your child. Use the instructions in it to sign up for a School-Day account at www.school-day.com and connect to your child’s events and activities.
With your support, we look forward to a successful implementation of this practical application!
