Frequently Asked Questions

For the first couple days, teachers are pretty good about being patient with new students. We don't expect you to know where everything is just from that little tour you had in June (if you were at the grade six barbecue). There is an online map that you can use to check things out from home (or from any Internet-linked computer). Teachers will relax a bit for the first couple days, so don't stress too much about getting lost. If you get lost, just ask a teacher how to get where you are trying to go. Teachers at Crowther are actually pretty helpful!

On the first day of school, you will come in the main doors (those are the doors by the bell tower). Once inside, you will see a bunch of kids crowding around the glass at the office. They are looking at the class lists. You need to look at these lists too to find out who your homeroom teacher is, and what classroom you need to go to. There will be many teachers in the hallway to help you find the room. They will probably ask you WHO your teacher is, and when you tell them, they will help you find the correct room. Once you've found the room, you can find a seat, and your homeroom teacher will answer all your questions from there!

Your homeroom teacher will give you your schedule on the first day of school after you find your homeroom.

Your homeroom teacher will assign you your locker and give you a lock for it on the first day of school after you find your homeroom.

No, but we ask that you help Shannon and our other custodians out by wiping your feet well when you enter the school.

You may not use MSN messenger or any chat line at school because predators use such forums to find and prey on children and teenagers. As a school, it is our responsiblity to do our best to protect our students from these menaces. For this reason, we do not allow the use of chat lines or posting forums at school.
