Dear Students and Families of Division 3

As we are entering a very unique time, I wanted to write a simple note for today. Monday, March 30, 2020.

The entire staff at Arbutus is working together to provide ways to communicate with you all.

I hope everyone is well and staying safe.

If you would like to contact me for any school matter, I welcome it and you can reach me at my district mail.

I not sure that I have all the answers right now but it would be nice to hear from you.

I will be trying my best to contact families again in the following days and weeks about wellness and possible learning opporturnites.

Stay safe and take care
