Hello SCI Families
Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! We are excited to be back with you again and look forward to an incredible school year.
This summer, SCI had the absolute honour of hosting our fall Director’s Meeting. As your principal, I have to tell you that I could not be more proud of the impact this had on our guests. The number of people who came to me and said “your school is beautiful” or “it feels great here” was honestly overwhelming.
This feeling is very special at SCI and it comes because of the people who call SCI home each and every day. You leave something that makes a difference for everyone else who visits after you.
So, this year, let’s keep that in mind. What do we want people to say about our school? About our kids?
I know our staff is ready to have a great school year, and we’re looking forward to hearing more and more success stories as the year goes on.
Welcome back!
Anne Tervit, Principal
