Well, this is the final week before March Break! Woohoo! ;-) The second semester flies by quicker than the first (if that's even possible!!), and we're all going to have to dig deep this week for the fortitude and focus it will take to see us through to a well earned Break at the end of the day on Friday. If your son/daughter is going to be absent outside of the usual holiday time, please be sure to let us know in the office so that you can avoid those annoying Synervoice calls home alerting you to the fact that they have gone MIA from classes! It would also help to check in with teachers in advance to see what work can be done so that your son/daughter will be caught up in classes upon their return to school.

KEEPING FIT DONATION MADE TO TOSH GRAD FUND
Rachel Parise of Keeping Fit recently invited me to her Keeping Fit class at Slemon Park (Yes, I took one for the team and actually exercised on Wear Pink Day!!) so that she could present me with $800 raised by her members to help support a local Grade 12 Student who otherwise would not be able to come up with the funds to participate in the activities associated with their Grade 12 year (Grad pictures, College/University application fees, Prom, Grad Activities, etc). Funds were raised from their Class For A Cause, a portion of sales from Keeping Fit T-Shirts donated by Prodigy Sports, and Summerside Storm Ticket Sales. This fitness group is so much more than just an exercise group: it's a community-based team who want to help themselves while helping others. THANK YOU ALL!!
TOSH MUSIC DEPARTMENT WELCOMES HOLLAND COLLEGE MUSIC STUDENTS
We are happy to be welcoming students from the Holland College Music program to perform for our MUS 421/521/621 and MUS 801 students this coming Wednesday in our school cafeteria. It always benefits our students to hear great performers and it will also lend some insight into this relatively new program being offered to post-secondary students at Holland College.
POWERLIFTING PROVINCIALS COMING UP
We wish good luck to our TOSH Powerlifting Team members as they head into provincial competition in Montague on Tuesday of this week: Julien Caron, Andrew Rafuse, Clayton Smith, and Adam Moore. We also welcome Dakota Marshall from KISH who will be travelling with our team.
