| Inclement weather and bus cancellation information reminder | http://inn.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/430 | Inclement weather and bus cancellation information reminder | <p></p><p><strong>Inclement weather and bus cancellation information reminder </strong><br>All information regarding cancelled buses in Simcoe County is posted on the Simcoe County Student Transportation Consortium (SCSTC)'s bus information website at <a href="http://www.simcoecountyschoolbus.ca/">www.simcoecountyschoolbus.ca</a>. Our school is in the <i>Central </i>zone. When buses are cancelled, schools remain open for student learning, unless otherwise noted. It is always a family decision whether or not it is safe for their child(ren) to leave for school under severe weather conditions.</p><p> </p><p>The Consortium and bus operators try to make the decision to cancel school buses before 6 a.m. and make every effort to post announcements before 7 a.m. Inclement weather cancellations are effective for the whole day and buses cancelled in the morning will not run at the end of the day. You can follow the Consortium on Twitter @SCSTC_SchoolBus for bus cancellations and other information.

| Welcome to the 2018 2019 School Year | http://inn.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/379 | Welcome to the 2018 2019 School Year | <p></p><p>Dear Parents/Guardians and Students:</p><p>It is hard to believe that another summer is waning and we are now into the new school year. Where did the summer go?</p><p>For me, starting each new school year is always so exciting – full of the potential to meet new people, have new experiences and continue my learning. </p><p>The most important lesson I have learned as a Principal is to open and then maintain the lines of communication between home and school. As we start a new year, I cannot stress how much I value the thoughts and opinions of you – the stake holders here at Innisfil Central. This is your school (students and parents) and I will rely on you to help me make the many decisions that I will be faced with in the next while. Please feel free to contact me (email is usually best and is included below) to share your thoughts, ideas, concerns and insight. </p><p>Please also check out our new and improved website. http://inn.scdsb.on.ca/</p><p>Together we will make a difference. </p><p>Christopher Russell</p><p>crussell@scdsb.on.ca (email is the best way to reach me)</p><p> </p><p><br></p> | | | |

| World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD) Thursday March 21, 2019: | http://inn.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/453 | World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD) Thursday March 21, 2019: | <p>Thursday March 21, 2019 is the 14<sup>th</sup> annual World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD). WDSB is designed to raise awareness of what Down Syndrome is, what it means to have Down Syndrome, and how people with Down Syndrome play a vital role in our schools, lives and communities. The date for WDSD, the 21<sup>st</sup> day of the 3<sup>rd</sup> month, signifies the uniqueness of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21<sup>st</sup> chromosome which causes Down Syndrome. <br></p><p>Innisfil Central Students and Staff can show their support for World Down Syndrome Day (WDSD) by encouraging everyone to wear "lots of socks" (i.e. colorful / different socks, etc.) on Thursday, and tweet photos using the hashtag #lotsofsocksscdsb – demonstrating that by working together we can make our schools (and the world) a better, more inclusive place.<br></p> | | | |
