The Survivors’ Flag is an expression of remembrance, meant to honour residential school Survivors and all the lives and communities impacted by the residential school system in Canada. Each element depicted on the flag was carefully selected by Survivors from across Canada, who were consulted in the flag’s creation. |

Welcome to 2021-2022 here at Quesnel Junior School.
The staff at Quesnel Junior School continue to work every day to create safe, positive, supportive learning experiences for students in our school. Teaching and learning during a Global Pandemic presents opportunities and challenges. Both staff and students continue to adapt to the new routines and expectations necessary to ensure a safe school environment. In spite of the challenges, learning continues to take place in dynamic and diverse ways. Check out our newsletter to get a taste of some of the ways collaboration, teamwork, skills development, and resilience are developed within the walls of Quesnel Junior School.
COVID-19 continues to be a concern and our safety measures have been very successful keeping us safe. The key phrase at this time continues to be "With An Abundance Of Caution". Thank you for everything you continue to do to support us as we work to keep everyone safe.
As you likely have heard there are a large number of people getting ill in our community.
At this time we plan to return to having our school doors locked, and limiting access except by appointment. If you are coming for an appointment we will meet you at the doors, help with the sign in, sanitization, and Daily Health Check, and will provide a mask if you need one.
If you need access to the school for reasons other than meetings/appointments, please contact the office 250-747-2103, and we will meet you at the front doors.
Reminder: Closed Campus, students must be picked up by a family member and sign out at the office in order to leave the school. Please call the school when you arrive (250-747-2103) so we can send your child out to you.
Things you can do to help:
1. Morning COVID-19 Check: Is your child well? YES= send to school NO = keep home (contact school to let us know your child is staying home; contact a health care provider if needed)
2. Go over the Site Safety Expectations for Quesnel Junior School with your child: it is really important that you and your family understand the protocols put in place to keep us all safe. Students need to understand they are expected to follow these directions-- if they put others at risk they may need to be picked up from school. Safety is our shared responsibility!
3. Contact us with your questions or concerns: Each of your child's teachers are willing to answer questions regarding your child. We know working together creates greater success!
We hope your children feel welcome and safe here at Quesnel Junior School. If you have concerns about things going on at school, or information you think we should have, please contact us as soon as possible. Our close work with families and community members are key to the success we have keeping young teens safe.
Quesnel Junior School is a positive place to work and learn. We are proud to work with such dedicated professionals who work so well together.
Stay well, stay in touch.
Yours Respectfully,
Mrs. Simpson QJS Principal
Mr. Loewen QJS Vice Principal
