Communications The following contains very important information concerning parent-teacher communications. The following is a list of the e-mail addresses for all of the teachers in the Social Sciences Department. For information concerning upcoming projects, tests and quizzes, you can consult my website at: santagata.weebly.com. On this site you will also find a list of materials, as well as information about what we are working on in class (past projects, relevant videos, etc.) It is highly encouraged that if you have any concerns about your child s success, or even if you just want to say hello to your child s teacher, please e-mail us. We will respond to you within 24 hours. Teachers are very busy during the school day, and we do not have secretaries to handle phone calls, so electronic communication is the most reliable way for you to communicate with us and for us to communicate with you. Once you have sent us an email, we have a reliable contact for the rest of the year. Please help us with parent-teacher communications by taking the first step to send us your contact information. e-mail: Mr. Ouwendyk rouwendyk@emsb.qc.ca Mr. Arnold parnold@emsb.qc.ca Ms. Thomakos dthomakos@emsb.qc.ca Ms. Santagata nsantagata@emsb.qc.ca Mr. Charles mcharles@emsb.qc.ca Mr. Lacalamita dlacalamita@emsb.qc.ca
