Return to Boarding Program Handbook 2020-21

June Closing and Room Clearing Grades 11 and 12 students must have all belongings packed and moved out of Boarding by 6 pm the day of graduation. Graduating students are not permitted to store belongings at the College over the summer. Students in Grades 9 and 10 will be required to move out of Boarding 48 to 72 hours after writing their last exam. Returning students may store no more the two bins of personal belongings in Boarding over the summer. Students who wish to store belongings will be provided with two storage bins. Due to limited storage space, students will not be allowed to leave any articles that do not fit into the two bins provided. Students who require more time in Boarding after their last exammust seek the permission of the Head of Boarding. All rooms must be completely free of students’ belongings, garbage, posters, school books, library books, electronic equipment, etc., upon departure in June. ​ All​ tape and blue tack must also be removed from the walls. Failure to comply with this request results in a room deposit charge of $100 to the student’s account. Common Rooms We have set up four common room areas (each with its own refrigerator), one for each Grade level cohort. The third floor main common room will be divided in half, one side for the Grade 9 students and one side for the Grade 10 students. The Grade 12 students will use the common area in the West Wing of the third floor and the Grade 11 students will have access to the common room/office on the fourth floor. During the initial two weeks of the quiet life period, students will not have access to the common rooms. During the second two weeks of the quiet life period, students will only be able to access the refrigerators in their respective common rooms, on a one-by-one basis and with strict cleaning protocols in place. After the six week quiet life period is over and students are settled into the new routines, the common rooms will be available to use for sitting and visiting. The furniture will be spaced in order to maintain an appropriate physical distance and limits will be placed on the maximum number of students who may be in the common room at any one time.
