News & Announcements

This week at DRCSS, grades have been assigned to specific days to drop off homework packages, empty lockers, and pick up any new learning materials. Please understand that the process to make this occur will ensure staff and student safety and we will be following all COVID-19 Health recommendations. Students will only be allowed into the school in small #’s at one time. This may cause time delays for the students to enter the school but is required. I thank you for your anticipated understanding during this unprecedented time.

Mr. Casavant

DRCSS students will have all of next week (9:00-3:30) to drop off their homework packages. Too alleviate congestion at the school, Gr.12’s will have Monday (April 13th) to drop off their packages and to pick up any new learning materials not sent by their teacher electronically. The same process for Gr. 11’s will occur on Tuesday (April 14th); Gr. 10’s Wednesday (April 15th); Gr. 9’s Thursday (April 16th).
