IMPORTANT NOTICE | UPDATE ON TRANSCO BUS SERVICE - SEPTEMBER 16, 2025
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Today, we were informed that Transco is still waiting for the necessary parts to repair all of their electric buses. The busing company has indicated that it may take a few more days to complete all inspections.
As a result, buses will not be able to pick up students tomorrow September 17 and maybe for the remaining of the week. (see list of buses below)
As soon as the vehicles have been fully inspected and authorized to return to the road, we will notify parents immediately.
We kindly ask parents to make the necessary arrangements to transport their children to and from school until further notice.
Please note:
All diesel (non-electric) buses will continue to operate as usual and will transport EMSB students without interruption.
There will likely be increased traffic around the school during drop-off and pick-up times. For safety reasons, we ask for your patience and cooperation in ensuring a smooth and secure process.
We apologize for this inconvenience and thank you in advance for your understanding and support.
The Transportation Division English Montreal School Board

Homework Policy
Homework is an essential part of a child’s learning:
it is based on lessons taught in class.
students should be able to complete the homework with minimal assistance.
some students may need assistance with reading.
assignments may be written work, including projects and reading, including studying materials taught in class.
it is encouraged that all children read something of their choice every day!
Homework is assigned for several reasons:
to reinforce skills taught in class
to complete work not completed in class
to commit to memory ideas or concepts
to work on an assigned project over a period of time
to allow time to collect information
to develop regular and independent work habits
to develop responsibility
Homework policy per grade:
Every individual teacher has their own homework policy that will be communicated with you. As such, collaboration between the teacher, parent/guardian, and student is essential.
A Student's homework responsibilities are:
to list homework assignments in the school agenda
to bring home all the materials needed to do the homework properly
to use the appropriate exercise books and stencils
to do all the written work neatly and carefully
to consider study work as important as written work
