McMillan Another March Break has come and gone and after a week away most will return ready to take on the chal- lenges of what may be a very interesting spring term . This period of time will see the implementation the Secondary School Reforms. The Ministry of Education and Training has released the document, ONTARIO SECONDARY SCHOOLS GRADES 9 to 12, PROGRAM AND DIPLOMA REQUIREMENTS 1999. I look forward to this period of change as we begin to develop programs which focus on the various learning styles of students rather than the designation of Advanced, or General, or Basic. This spring we will present our first Fashion Show at St. Anne's on April 8th and 9th . Staff and students will strut down the runway informal wear, cruise wear and casual clothes, as funds are raised to defray costs to our students for their graduation . This week we will be preparing for the Easter Season with Reconciliation for any staff or student who wishes to participate. Reconciliation will take place on Tuesday, March 23rd, from 9 until 11:30 am. On Friday, students will be able to see a hypnotist in an afternoon assembly .
