Happy New Year!

Welcome to the new school year.  Things will ramp up and become busier than things were during the summer. 

This is my seventh year at SCS and my 19th year of teaching in the Saskatoon Public School Division.   It is an honour and joy to teach your child(ren) this year.  It is also an even greater privilege to guide your children into God's truth (John 16:13)

We will be having the Meet the Teacher night on September 25th.  There will be an orientation for you that night. I hope to see you all there. 

Please check the blog regularly as it is usually updated each week.  There are also important links that are on the blog that you should be bookmarking.  http://gr6201415.blogspot.ca/

Sometimes we are in need of volunteers to come on field trips,  we would be happy to have you help out. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me through email.  baetza@spsd.sk.ca

Let's have a great year together.

Mr. A. Baetz
