These photos show Canaan's two teams competing in a maple installation challenge yesterday. They competed against other agriculture and/or forestry programs from around the State. They worked as teams to solve issues and had fun at the same time. These Career Development Events are sponsored by the FFA and drive a large volume of the curriculum in the DAgNR program. Results pending.









Mr. Follis and Mrs. Lawcewicz had a great day with the Civics and Government class at the Vermont State House. We met with Senator Ingalls and Representative Kascensca to discuss the education reform bill and expanding learning opportunities for students in the Northeast Kingdom.

With the nor’easter coming, and days to play being very limited, Profile has decided we will play our Varsity Baseball double header in Lisbon tomorrow instead of Profile, because their field is very wet. As a result, we will also be playing much earlier. Our first game will be at 12:30, followed by the second at 2:30. This means bus times will be moved up to 9:30 from Pittsburg and 9:45 from Canaan. This is an unusual circumstance but options are very limited.

Congratulations to Award Winners!

To All Parents and Guardians:
Canaan Schools will be doing an EVACUATION DRILL on Thursday May 15th at 10am grades PK - 12th. During an “Evacuation Drill”, students will be safely escorted along a designated evacuation route to one of our predetermined evacuation sites. At the conclusion of the drill, all students will be escorted back to the school.
For the safety of everyone involved and to maintain order, we respectfully ask that you would abide by the following during these drills: • Do not come to the school campus • Do not call the school offices (as they will be busy with the drill or actual emergency) • Do not contact students or staff members via cell phone or social media (as they will be busy with the drill or actual emergency) • Avoid social media posts. Correct information will be disseminated through our automated system as soon as possible. • Please make sure that your contact information is current at all times so that you can be reached without delay in the event of an emergency. • In the event of an actual emergency evacuation, you will receive notification where to pick up your child as soon as practicable.
Please remember that these safety practice drills are done to help maintain our schools as a safe place to learn and work.
If you have any questions regarding any of these Safety Drills or other safety concerns, please contact your school office, or the office of the superintendent.
Sincerely,
Ronald Patterson
Principal
