Hello,

Welcome back to our staff, students and families and a warm welcome to our new families to the Douglas Park community. I am very excited start another year at Douglas Park Community School!

I look forward to working with all of you to have a positive school year – please feel free to drop into the office to share any concerns, ask any questions or to introduce yourself.

We are working hard to fill all positions by the end of the first week of school.

Please see the information below about our first day and week of school.

We are looking forward to a successful school start up!

Mrs. Diana Wilk

Principal, Douglas Park Community School

First Day of School

Our first day of school is Tuesday, September 4. School starts at 8:40 and dismissal is at 10:10. Returning students will join their class from last year in the following locations:

There will be a sign outside the front door of the school to indicate where students are to go, and outside classroom doors will be labeled (please pick up your child at the same room where you dropped them off).

All new students and families please come through the front door and meet in the library to meet with Mr. Dorland, our vice principal. After a short talk he will take the new students for a tour of the school. New students will be dismissed from the front foyer with information for the remainder of the week.

Students will continue to enter and depart from these classrooms for the first week of school and go into permanent classes on Monday, September 10.
