Dear Vincent Massey Families:
We are looking forward to the first day of school on Tuesday, September 2 and welcoming our returning and new students.

We each have a role to play in creating a connected, and positive community. This newsletter includes important information to support our partnership to meet this goal.
Please contact your child’s teacher or the office with any questions.
