The Sooke District Schools would like to acknowledge the traditional territories of the Coast Salish, specifically Esquimalt Nation and Songhees Nation on which the school is built; and the nations SD62 works with Beecher Bay, Scia’new Nation, T’Sou-ke Nation, and Nuu-chah-nulth Pacheedaht Nation to the west.

  • Cell phones should not be taken out of backpacks to use until students are OUTSIDE OF THE SCHOOL BUILDING at the end of the school day.
  • Cell phones are to remain in backpacks all day, not in pockets.  

Things went pretty smoothly for the first month of school, but we have noticed that some students are forgetting this important rule.
