WELCOME TO THE 2024-2025 SCHOOL YEAR!

Welcome to our new staff, welcome back to returning staff, and thank you to the administrative, facilities, operational and security staff who worked this summer to prepare UTS for the year!

Professional Development Sessions

We are looking forward to learning together on our upcoming PD days - Tuesday, September 3 and Wednesday, September 4 (p.m.)

School Schedules for 2024-2025

Here is a link to the information sent to teacher inboxes for the 2024-2025 year.

New Student Orientation - September 4

We will welcome our new F1s, M3s, M5s, and S5s the morning before our staff meeting. F1s will be in one orientation group, with the higher grades in a separate one. Please see your inbox for details.

F1 Onboarding - September 5 - 6

In addition to the onboarding activities F1 teachers will be engaging their students in to set them up for success for the school year, we have organized a schedule of visits from members of our Academic Leadership team to your classrooms for brief introductions and learning about the various human resources available to students at our school. Most of these visits will be short (15-30 minutes), except the visit from our new Head of Middle School, Royan Lee, who will be engaging students in a full period of facilitated learning on the Code of Conduct.

Safe Schools Assemblies - September 6

The Middle School (F1, F2, M3) assembly takes place from 10:40 - 11:10 a.m.

Senior School (M4, S5, S6) assembly follows from 11:55 a.m. - 12:25 p.m.

Please bring your classes to the auditorium and sit with them.
