Information for Parents

Posted: September 3, 2021

Hello DLMS Community!

We are excited to start another year.  With new beginnings, we understand that there can be nerves and a desire to know what might have changed.  Below are some big ticket items that can answer some questions.

Masking/COVID Protocols - Students will not be in bubbles this year; they will travel the school from class to class and we will have flex groupings to support learning.  In a learning environment, students can remove their mask.  Everyone at DLMS is required to wear a mask in common areas.  Homeroom teachers will clarifiy this in detail with students on their grade level day.  If parents want more info in this you can check out "Healthy and Safe Schools" from EECD - https://www2.gnb.ca/content/dam/gnb/Departments/ed/pdf/2021-22-guideline...

Student handbook - During the grade level day, homeroom teachers will go over school procedures and policies with students.  This information is found in our student handbook.  Here is a link to our student handbook: - http://drlosier.nbed.nb.ca/sites/drlosier.nbed.nb.ca/files/schooldocs/st...

Cafeteria- Both will begin Sept 13 - Students will need a Bagged Lunch and snack for week 1.  Please note that WEB Day we provide snacks, water and lunch.  Break canteen will start in mid-September.

Memos going home - At DLMS, we do not send home newsletters. Instead, we use our school website and social media feeds.  When there are memos going home, they are shared on these platforms.  Also, from time to time we will notify parents using email of school info.  We ask that after your student's grade level day that you review all the memos that go home and return anything that needs to come back ASAP.
