VIMY JR. HIGH EARLY SCHEDULE RELEASED
The Vimy Ridge Academy Junior High groups will be on the ice next week and their early schedule has been released.
PLEASE NOTE:
• We will use this first term as an evaluation/assessment period. First changes will occur at the beginning of October as we approach the Fall Break. More changes will take place in January at Semester break and at Spring Break.
• We ask that you be patient with the student grouping process and keep in mind the THP Criteria involved when placing students into groups-age, grade, physical skill, physical maturity, mental maturity, & group dynamic. The ultimate goal is to find the best grouping to maximize overall individual student development. We realize this can be a very stressful time for not only students but parents as well and we hope to make any necessary changes as smooth as possible.
• A strong support staff will be joining the groups for on ice sessions. Dustin Schwartz will continue to rotate through the groups weekly to work with the goalies. Just like last year, he will be accompanied by Lyle Mast for monthly goalie only sessions.
• Contact Ryan Marsh directly for any further info with regards to student groupings.
We are looking forward to tremendous 2010-2011 school year.
