DAY 2

MORNING PRAYER

Today’s prayer was written by an École St. Mary High School student.

Lord God, 

School is not always easy.
Some days it is very difficult and I struggle to relax and be at peace.  
Yet I know that you will give me patience, wisdom, and courage 
to be excellent in every way,
and that you will help me to love others as you love me.
Amen

EDSBY MESSAGE: SEPTEMBER OVERDUE/LOST

In a few days, all Grade 9 – Grade 12 students with Overdue/Lost library books, textbooks, novel sets and calculators will be receiving an Edsby message titled “September Overdue/Lost”. It will be a screen capture of their library account listing these items. A similar process will occur each month. All Grade 11 students and Grade 12 students with Overdue/Lost textbooks, novel sets and calculators will have these items added to their SchoolCash account. These items can be paid online (SchoolCash access on the division website at www.pacsd.ca) or in the main office. Please note that if an item on the SchoolCash is returned to the library, the main office will be notified to remove the item from the SchoolCash account. If an item is returned to the library after payment has been made, the main office will issue a refund. 


OPENING DOORS TO TOMORROW CAREER & JOB FAIR: Oct. 16th (Day 2)

Saskatchewan Health Authority, Saskatchewan Polytechnic, Saskatchewan Rivers Public School Division, Prince Albert & District Community Futures and Prince Albert Catholic School Division have partnered again this year to host this annual event on Wednesday, October 16th. The career/job fair, open to all Grade 9-12 students, provides a common forum for agencies, organizations, businesses, universities, colleges and other interested parties to come together in one place and showcase what they have to offer. This huge event is designed to assist students and youth, as well as the general population of Prince Albert and surrounding communities, to prepare for, obtain, and/or maintain employment. The benefit of this career/job fair cannot be overstated for students. Not only are Grade 9 students meeting career education outcomes by attending, but also the information will assist with planning future high school classes to best meet their career ambitions. For Grade 10-12 students, the connection is clear as these students are on the cusp of graduating and have some significant decisions ahead of them. For additional information about the career fair, please visit
