Today is tuesday and today is National Chocolate day!

Because it wanted to be a Smartie!

Due to BC General Employees' Union (BCGEU) strike action in the BC Public Service, the Graduation Assessment Session for November 3-7, 2025 has been cancelled for all grade 10 and 12 assessments. Palmer grade 12 students, please stay tuned for information on rescheduling of the GLA 12.

The Ministry has confirmed that early admission to post-secondary institutions in B.C. will not be impacted by the cancellation, as students are able to write the assessments in another session (January, April, or June) and submit their results when completed. With this news, ALL Palmer students - Please note that for November 5^th and 6th, we will be having a PLT bell schedule. Students will be able to sign up for PLT for Nov5-6 later this week.
