KLEEFELD SCHOOL PARENT ADVISORY COUNCIL Due to in school classes being suspended by the Province of Manitoba, PAC meetings are cance�ed. We
look forward to when we wi� be able to resume in school learning and our regular PAC meeting schedule.
BAND / MUSIC @ KLEEFELD SCHOOL The closure of schools has had a great impact on our band and music program at Kleefeld School. The �rst
e�ect was that our Band Bash Fundraiser (Thursday, March 19) was cance�ed. Since then, the Province of Manitoba has closed in school learning inde�nitely. This has a�ected the remainder of the band and musical
events for this school year (grade seven band @ Optimist Festival, grade six orientation for grade seven event, spring musicale, grade eight band trip, grade seven/eight June concert). Undoubtedly we a� have many questions surrounding the cancelation of these events. We are in contact with HSD and the Province of Manitoba for directives. Once we receive that information, we wi� pass it on to you.

CLASS REQUESTS We are fast approaching the time of year where we wi� be creating classes for next year. There are a number of factors which are considered as classes are being created. One of those factors is that students have a friend in their classes. Norma�y, teachers co�ect this information from their students
in school. This year is not normal - so, please could students and/or parents notify their students’ homeroom teacher with a list of 5 friends. We need to receive these lists by Monday morning, April 27 . After this date, we wi� do our best to connect students with friends based on teacher observations. Another type of request we receive from parents is class placement requests. Parents wishing to request students’ placement in a speci�c classroom should be made by the morning of Monday, April 27 . After this date, adjustments wi� be made only in the direst of circumstances. It should also be noted, that while we do not guarantee or promise class placements, we wi� try our best to honour those requests.
