John T. Tuck Public School

Welcome to John T Tuck PS!

The office is open from 8:30am - 2:30pm, Monday to Friday from August 19th to September 3rd to accept new registrations.  Homeroom Teacher names will be e-mailed to parents over the Labour Day weekend so that students know where to go on the first day of school. 

This year, we had an overwhelming amount of written requests for consideration when building our classes. As a staff, we worked very hard to accommodate as many requests as we could, while keeping a balance within our classes between gender, social groupings, and academic ability. As parent input was due on May 15th, we will not be considering any additional feedback at this time as classes are being finalized. In the event that you or your child are not initially pleased with the class placement, we respectfully ask that you resist the temptation to call or e-mail school staff to request a change. We believe we have created classrooms where our students can be successful in building new friendships while building on past peer relationships. Our staff will not be considering any changes to our classrooms, however, we are committed to helping each student transition into their new grade.

Class rosters for the 2024-25 school year will only be revised if we are forced to go through a September reorganization. This news would be communicated to all parents during the second week of school.

We are looking forward to welcoming our students back to school on Wednesday, September 4th. All students in grades 1-8 will meet their teachers on the blacktop area behind the school. At 9:15 am, Grades 1-6 students will line up and wait to enter the school with their teacher, while Grade 7 & 8 students will enter through door #7 to find their class in the large gym. Teacher names will be on signs at the area where the class will line up for Grades 1-6, and in the Gym for Grades 7-8.  Kindergarten students will meet their teachers in the Kindergarten play areas at the front of the school, or at their classroom doors.  This will be clearly labelled. We look forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday, September 4th.
