Each year, the Manitoba School Boards Association provides information to families on Student Accident Insurance. If your family is interested in purchasing Voluntary Student Accident Insurance, which provides enhanced accident coverage for accidents and benefits beyond that of the Universal Student Accident Insurance held by the School Division or through a parent/guardian’s benefits plan through their employer, please click on the above link for more information.

A $700 donation was made to the DRCSS QSA on behalf of BOHO Tattoo, Robbie Tomkins, from Pride day flash tattoos.

The DRCSS is proud to announce that once again we will be partnering with Presidents Choice -  Power Full Kids Eat Well Program. Presidents Choice has provided $15,000.00 to help support the program in our school. The program helps to fund our healthy snacks, the toast station and special event breakfasts that we have throughout the year. Thank you to President's Choice for their generous support in helping to keep our students healthy and learning.
