Harold Longworth Public School offers many school activities and items through the online payment system known as School Cash Online. We would like to remind you that School Cash Online is currently the preferred method of payment for all orders and events and is gradually becoming the only accepted method of payment.

School Cash Online provides many benefits for both parents and students which include:

• Convenient email notifications for new items available to each student. You will know, for example, when hot lunch, spirit wear, class trips or year book are available without relying on notices coming home.
• The 24/7 availability to make payments anytime from anywhere through your PC or mobile app.
• Email confirmation of all payments and orders to ensure accuracy and receipt of payment.
• No longer needing to have exact change to send to school and the safety of your child not carrying cash with them.

To Register:

 Step 1:  Please visit kprdsb.schoolcashonline.com

Step 2:  Register by selecting the “Get Started Now” button and following the steps.

Step 3:  After you receive the confirmation email, please select the “click here” option, login and add each of your children to the household account. To do this you need your student’s first name, last name and date of birth.

If you have any questions during the registration process or while shopping online, please select the SUPPORT option in the top right hand area of the screen or contact the help desk at 1-866-961-1803.

Thank you very much for your ongoing support!

While our schools are physically closed, school registration continues!

Secretaries, principals, educators and school board staff are working behind the scenes preparing for Kindergarten 2020-21. Families can register online with any device connected to the Internet, at KPR School Registration. 

Some printed documents are required to finalize school registration, such as proof of age and address, and these can be handed in once schools re-open.

Until then, our Kindergarten web portal www.kprschools.ca/kindergarten includes important resources and strategies to help prepare your little one for school. We look forward to welcoming our new students and families this fall!

Dear Parent/Guardian,

In this unusual circumstance of school closures due to COVID-19, your child’s year-end report card will be sent to you by email on Thursday, June 25, 2020 via a password protected attachment. To open the protected file, you will need to enter your child’s date of birth as MM/DD/YYYY.  For example, if your child’s date of birth is March 8, 2014 then the password is 03082014.

If you would like the report card to be e-mailed to an alternate email address on June 25, 2020, please advise the school as soon as possible.

The June report cards have been prepared by your child’s teacher(s) and in accordance with Ministry of Education guidelines and expectations for assessment, evaluation and reporting during school closure as follows:

• The reports are based on learning that took place from the beginning of Term 2 to March 13, 2020, which is 5-6 weeks in length. The teacher when assigning a final grade/mark may take evidence of learning collected during the school closure period into consideration when it is to the student’s benefit.
• Your child’s teacher(s) may choose to include comments on growth in learning during the school closure period when it is to the student’s benefit.
• Because of the short time-frame between the beginning of Term 2 and March 13, there may be instances where there is insufficient evidence to provide your child with a mark or grade in a specific strand or subject area (Grade 1 to 8) due to the school closure. In this case, teachers may use a special code “I” in place of a mark or grade.
• Ratings on the Learning Skills and Work Habits will also reflect information gathered from the beginning of Term 2 to March 13, 2020 (Grade 1 to 8).
• A signed copy of the report card will be placed in your child’s Ontario Student Record (OSR) when it is safe for us to return to school. Signed copies will be made available upon request.

We wish to extend our sincere appreciation to parents and guardians as partners during this unusual and challenging time. Thank you for your efforts to support learning at home.  We wish you a healthy and safe summer holiday.

Sincerely,

Bryan Beers
Principal
Harold Longworth Public School
