| Morning Announcements for April 7, 2021 | http://oss.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/648 | Morning Announcements for April 7, 2021 | <p>Reminder to all grade 12 girls who are intending to apply to the Canadian Federation of University Women's Club scholarship that the application deadline is April 15th which is during the break. That means that you will need to request your transcripts from Mrs. Hollinger in guidance by this Friday Morning!</p><p>You may not be aware, but paper towels need to be put in the garbage when there are no green bins available. Paper Towels DO NOT go in the recycling. I know what you are thinking -but paper towels are made of paper - it's right there in the name! UnforUnfortunately the fibers that make up the paper towel can not be recycled as paper can. When you put paper towels in the recycling bin that bag of recycling ends up being thrown out, and the rest that could have been recycled ends up in the garbage. Please remember PAPER TOWELS need to go into the GARBAGE.<br></p> | | | |
