Hey Stingers! Come down to the Learning Commons today and check out a book to read over Spring Break. There are many new books that have been added to our collection. Please ask Ms. Love or Ms. Pacheco McKinnon for recommendations.
This is your final opportunity to claim anything in the lost and found! The tables are set up in the main foyer - if you see something you lost or no one has claimed yet, please take it home with you. All items not claimed will be donated by the end of the day today.

GRAD 2025
Calling any Grad 2026 parents! Yes, you read that right! The 2025 Parent Grad Committee would like to know if any parents of students graduating in 2026 are interested in joining us on June 26th to participate in setting up and supervising the After Grad event at UVic. This would be an opportunity to see how the evening runs and acquire information for the 2026 After Grad event. If this is something you may be interested in, please email stellysdrygrad@gmail.com and let us know!
SCRAP METAL RECYCLING: There’s a large blue metal recycling bin in the upper parking lot by the street that is awaiting your scrap metal donations. If you have any metal stuff at home, in your yard or in the shed that you want to get rid of, it’s accessible 24/7 for drop-off and proceeds go towards the 2025 Stelly’s Dry Grad!
