However, because we are a secondary school, when you post a message to the blog, it comes to me first for review before it is published for all to see. Please send your new "posts" to cchafer@sd48.bc.ca and I will publish it on the blog, or if you want to comment on a published post, just click on the Comment button.

If you want to share one of the posts with friends, you can now use Facebook, Twitter, and Google Buzz. Click on the desired button below each post.
