<p class="MsoNormal"><span class="ms-rteFontSize-2" style="font-family:"calibri",sans-serif;color:black;">Students who display an advanced degree of general intellectual
ability require additional program support in order to reach their educational
potential. This support may be through enhancing the curriculum, differentiated
instruction and through providing program modifications. This type of
programming is important to engage, motivate and challenge students who are
identified as gifted in either the regular classroom or in gifted classroom
placements. <br></span></p><p style="text-align:justify;"><span class="ms-rteFontSize-2"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:black;">Parents/guardians of a student who are in or above Grade 3, who wish to nominate their child for gifted screening are asked to contact </span><strong><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Marlene Macklin</span></strong><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;"> (</span></span><span style="font-family:"calibri",sans-serif;color:black;"><a href="mailto:mmacklin@scdsb.on.ca" style="text-decoration-line:none;"><span class="ms-rteFontSize-2" style="font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:#1155cc;"><span style="text-decoration-line:underline;white-space:pre-wrap;">mmacklin@scdsb.on.ca</span></span></a></span><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:black;">) before </span><strong><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Thursday September 28th, 2017</span></strong><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">.</span></span></span></p><p style="text-align:justify;"><span class="ms-rteFontSize-2" style="font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:black;">If

<p style="margin:0in 0in 7.5pt;background:white none repeat scroll 0% 0%;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:#595959;">The SCDSB Parent Portal is a
secure online tool that provides parents/guardians (of students less than 18
years of age) with quick access to their children's attendance and grades.
Parents and guardians can set up daily, weekly or monthly email alerts for
attendance information.</span></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 7.5pt;background:white none repeat scroll 0% 0%;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:#595959;">To access the Parent Portal,
parents/guardians will need their child's Pupil ID Number, which can be found
on the Student Information Verification Form sent home at the start of every
school year, as well as an Access ID.</span></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 7.5pt;background:white none repeat scroll 0% 0%;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:#595959;">The Access ID will be
provided in a sealed letter. If you lose the Access ID, you can visit us in the
school office and we'll provide it to you after verifying your identity.</span></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 7.5pt;background:white none repeat scroll 0% 0%;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:#595959;">Each student has a unique Access
ID and Student Number. Once a Parent/Guardian has created a Parent Portal
account, all students can be linked to that single account.</span></p><p style="margin:0in 0in 7.5pt;background:white none repeat scroll 0% 0%;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:#595959;">Go to </span><a target="_blank" href="http://ps.scdsb.on.ca/"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:#0072b9;">http://ps.scdsb.on.ca</span></a><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"arial",sans-serif;color:#595959;"> to create a Parent Portal account or login.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:107%;"> </span></p> | | | |
