Office Communication for Parents & Guardians

Good afternoon everyone, we are sharing a communication with our parent/guardian community so that we can streamline requests coming into the office.

If you child is ill or absent please use Edsby to report that absence or call the school at 905-893-2829. It is very important to communicate absences as early as possible. Our office hours are from 8 am to 4 pm. You can leave us a voice message too. 

If you child is being picked up early, please communicate this with the office ASAP and preferably in the morning that this pick up is happening. The more notice the better. We have been receiving late (i.e., 3 pm) phone calls and communications from parents/guardians about students and changes to home transportation, such as not taking a bus home or being picked up at the school instead. These are very difficult to manage given that LJPS has over 450+ students. I hope you can all appreciate the logistical challenges should we have 10 or more request at the same time on the same day. 

We want to do our best in keeping all students safe and accounted for so your help in this matter and your commitment to communicating with as much notice as possible is appreciated. 

Thanks!
