Please remember that the doors open in the morning at 9:10 and close at 9:13. After 9 am, students are supervised outside until the bell.
Terry Fox Run
Monterey Park students will run to raise money for the Terry Fox Foundation on Friday, Sept 12. Families are welcome to join us by running alongside the kids or cheering them on. Come out and enjoy the fun!
K-2 students will run from 9:45-10:30 3-6 students will run from 11:00-11:45
Please send any money that you would like like to donate to this cause with your child to school or make an online donation here: TERRY FOX DONATION.
If MPS students raise $1000, teachers will get a cream pie in the face! If we raise $1500 - Ms. Christopher gets the pie! Let’s start donating!
MPS Welcome Back Picnic NEW DATE!
This event has been moved to September 15. Food trucks will be available from 5:30-7pm. Join us for good food and conversation! Meet your child’s teacher!
School Pick Up
When you arrive to pick up your child(ren) please go to their designated door to meet them or choose a “family meeting spot” somewhere near the school but
NOT at the front door. Our kindergarten students will be entering and exiting through this door this year - and it can get very busy!
Also - please do not block the driveways of our neighbours as you park to pick up your child. We have had some phone calls to the school complaining that people cannot access their property.
School Bus
If your child usually takes the bus and they will NOT be riding it after school, you must let the office know. Daily attendance is done on the bus.

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
At Monterey Park, we will be sharing the story: Walking Together as we talk about ways to honour the important work of reconciliation by moving forward together in a good way. Use the link to explore the story with your child as part of this learning.
