Things are winding up to wind down these days at school. Our Grade 12's will begin their final exams on Monday, and the Grade 10's and 11's will join them in that final assessment process beginning on Wednesday of this week. That means it will be class as usual for the 10's and 11's on Monday and Tuesday. When students are in exams, they must remain in class from 8:55-10:30 a.m. before they can leave. Exams run each morning of the schedule until 11:30 a.m. (See Dates to Remember section!). After that, students are encouraged to use the time to seek extra help or study. They do not have to remain in the building in the afternoon; but if they do, they are asked to be prepared to do something constructive with their time.
Please Note!: There will be no cell phone use permitted in the school from 8:55-11:30 a.m. beginning on Monday due to the final assessments happening in the school. I will be making this announcement to our students on Monday morning and their teachers will be reminding them each morning, as well.

Our school is a better place because of your many contributions. We appreciate you!
A huge thank you goes out to all the student and parent fans who braved the Arctic temperatures to cheer our TOSH AAA Men's and Women's rugby teams on to provincial gold against Charlottetown Rural last week. Both tries for the ladies were scored by Ashley Wright and the drop goal was scored by Erica Gillis, for a final score of 13-5. They try for the men was scored by Luke Thompson with the conversion kick scored by Greg Arsenault for a final score of 7-0. (Can anyone lend me a "Rugby for Dummies" book?!) Thanks to all our athletes for an exciting season and for the "class" you showed as student athletes, both on and off the field, this year. We're proud of you!!

2012 Three Oaks Senior High School Art Exhibit Showing at MacNaught History Centre and Archives
The 2012 Three Oaks Grad Art Exhibit will be on display at the MacNaught History Centre and Archives from June 5th through to June 14th. Six students of our art teacher, Shannon Evans, will be graduating from TOSH in June and it has become a tradition for Wyatt Heritage Properties (the arts, heritage, and cultural complex for Summerside) to host an exhibit of their work. The exhibit will feature painting and sculpture. The MacNaught Gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm at 75 Spring Street, Summerside. Admission to the show is free and this is a wonderful opportunity for Islanders to see some of our upcoming artists. 2011-2012 YEARBOOKS ARE HERE!
Students who ordered this year's copy of the Enhancer (which looks FANTASTIC!) in the fall received them last week. Mrs. Callbeck had ordered some extra copies that were to be available for a cost of $50 until they are gone, so students can see her in Room 410 if they wish to purchase a yearbook.

| Grad 2011 |
Our Grade 12 parents have a busy-and probably emotional!-couple of weeks ahead! Here are some "should know" info for now, but please do not hesitate to contact us at the school if you have any further questions or concerns!:
When?: Thursday, June 21, 2012. The Processional of Graduates begins at 6:50 p.m. and the Graduation Ceremony will begin at 7 p.m. We are hoping to streamline things this year and aiming for a 2.5 hour long ceremony.
Where?: Credit Union Place, Summerside
Tickets?: None needed! Everyone is welcome to help celebrate our graduating students. Seating will be in the bowl only (Grads and VIP's only on the floor) on a first come, first served basis.
Dress?: Students will be wearing graduation gowns, but it looks much classier if boys wear pants, rather than shorts, and a tie (optional). Girls can wear either pants, dresses, or skirts but should make sure that their shoes are comfortable to walk in! This is NOT the night to try high heels for the first time! :-) Please also remind all grads: NO GUM!! It looks terrible on stage!
CD Souvenir: We have a professional photographer hired again this year to stand front and centre and take a professional photo of everything that happens on stage. Each grad will receive a complimentary CD containing all the pictures taken at the graduation for you to enjoy!
Grad Rehearsal and Breakfast: The Grad Breakfast begins at 9 a.m. on June 21 at the school. We then bus the students to the CUP for rehearsal around 10:30 a.m. and back to the school afterwards. Grads need to arrive at the CUP by 6:15 p.m. on graduation night.
Safe Grad Activity for Grads Afterwards?: Registration forms have already gone out to students for Safe Grad, and the form and money collection times are Tuesday and Thursday of this week from 11:30-12:15. Parents interested in volunteering snack food, or time as supervisors, are encouraged to contact Dia-Lynn Keough ASAP at: dlkeough@edu.pe.ca.
**Post-Secondary Information!**: Students headed to post-secondary schools next year MUST come in to Student Services to sign the sheet saying where their final transcripts are to be sent OR THEY WILL NOT BE SENT, WHICH IS NOT GOOD!! Also, if your son/daughter has received a scholarship and you would like this recognized during the graduation, they must bring in a copy of the scholarship information to Student Services ASAP.
Kudos to Our Kids!

Quote of the Week (for Finals!): "Worry is not preparation."~ Author Unknown
(I have a sweatshirt that has this on it! :-))
Remember, June can be a very stressful time for many reasons, so give your son or daughter a little extra TLC these next two weeks. We promise to do that too! :-)
