Educational Assistant Appreciation Day

Time: All Day

On May 14, we recognize the dedication, hard work and compassion of educational assistants in our school community and across Elk Island Public Schools. Educational assistants play an integral role in education, from one-on-one student support to larger classroom dynamics. Thank you to all our educational assistants—you make a difference in the lives of students every day, and we are so grateful to have each one of you in our school.

 

This Educational Assistant Appreciation Day and beyond, we encourage students, families and staff to take a moment to tell an educational assistant how they’ve impacted you and to share your appreciation with them.

Kindergarten Information Night at 5:00pm

Time: All Day

Do you have a child registered at James Mowat Elementary in kindergarten for next year? If so, make sure to attend James Mowat Elementary’s upcoming Kindergarten Information Night on May 14th, 2025 at 5:00pm.

To make the transition to school as smooth as possible, Elk Island Public Schools has put together a toolkit for families. The kit includes information about registration, important dates, programming options, what to expect, eligibility, finding your designated school, transportation and more.

Additional information about James Mowat Elementary’s kindergarten program is available on the school website. https://www.jamesmowat.ca/programs/kindergarten
