1. Welcome to Grade3/4!
“Parents belong at the center of a young child’s education. The single best way to improve elementary education is to strengthen parents’ role in it, both by reinforcing their relationship with the school and by helping and encouraging them in their own critical job of teaching the young. Not all teachers are parents, but all parents are teachers.”
~Bennet

8. AHM Rules and Expectations
At Arnold H. McLeod School we have a simple yet effective set of student expectations.  Using the acronym L E A R N, we created a set of expectations for our students at our school based around the question "How do we learn?“
L:  Look, listen and grow
E:  Excited and engaged
A:  Accepting of everyone
R:  Respectful and responsible
N:  Never give up 
To provide a safe learning environment for students and staff, Arnold H. McLeod School is a SCENT FREE SCHOOL and a PEANUT FREE SCHOOL. 
Arnold H. McLeod School is expected to ensure food in the school and at year-end celebrations must meet guidelines set forth in policy 711-Healthier Foods and Nutrition.  Parents must adhere to this policy; therefore, if your child brings food to share with classmates that does not meet these guidelines, it will be returned home unopened and uneaten.
