Although it’s not the same as physically crossing the stage, we are looking at ways to honour our graduating class of 2020 in a virtual way! Your accomplishments deserve to be celebrated! For more information on the virtual ceremony please click here.

In preparation, could you please complete your Grad Tweet using the form here by Friday May 15^th!

Core competencies are part of every class at Byrne Creek and vary in how they are developed. For instance, communication in math class may look rather different from communication in dance class. Teachers at Byrne Creek are working to help students recognize when they are using and building their core competencies, and identify strengths and areas in need of further growth. All grade 8 and 9 students are required to complete a yearly self-reflection that self-assesses the development of their core competencies.

Grade 8 and 9 Core Competency Reflections have been moved to an online format which will now take place between May 15th and May 29th.   Information will be sent to students and families this week, and you can find more resources here:
