Hey MAC,
The $85 Student Activity Fee is an essential contribution to Mackenzie life. This Fee provides the financial budget to support the running of ALL: Student Council initiatives, Club/Council initiatives, Athletic and Intramural initiatives and Mackenzie School Wide initiatives.
As per William Lyon Mackenzie Collegiate’s 2023-2024 policy, if a student fails to pay their student activity fee, they will be denied the opportunity to participate in any of the above initiatives and will not be granted their student card.
The $85 Student Activity Fee is to be paid using School Cash Online .
Please see the Main Office or the Mackenzie administration, if there are any issues with the Student Activity Fee payment.

Hey Mackenzie! Are you ready to learn how to make your ideas memorable and actionable, in other words, how to make it stick?
The Lyon invites you to join us next Monday, April 18th, at 11:50 am in Room 218 for a seminar based on Chip and Dan Heath's bestseller "Make it Stick!"
Whether your aspirations lie in the fields of business, journalism, sciences, arts, education, or beyond, this engaging presentation will inform and motivate you on how to incorporate the elements of simplicity, unexpectedness, concreteness, credibility, emotion, and storytelling to capture your audiences. You rock. See you Monday:)

"ChatGPT, oh how smart you are
Your conversations take us far
With words and wit, you entertain
A true AI master of the chat domain"
- ChatGPT
Cringey or cool? What's your opinion, Mac? The Lyon is weaving together an article about ChatGPT (and featuring a mirror version prepared by ChatGPT) and we would love your words of advice and wisdom! As passionate believers in our beliefs, here is your opportunity to have your voice featured on a Mackenzie-special piece discussing this very pertinent development.
We encourage you to fill out this anonymous survey, or not, the choice to read, rant, and roar is yours: https://forms.gle/pVXDhYbW58Lp5BnB6

Our newest issue is out now!

Dearest Mackenzie,

Attention citizens of Mackenzie! Coming soon is the Student Vote for the upcoming Provincial Election and guess whose opinion will be voiced? Yours!
Student Vote is an opportunity for youth, aka soon-to-be adults, to exercise their right to vote. Voting itself entails understanding where your responsibility is coming from, where it’s going, and why. Thus, to help you, on Thursday, May 12 after school from 4 to 5pm, there will be a virtual all-candidates panel to inform you about the various party platforms. Are you interested in seeing who has your best interests at heart? Come pop in to hear the initiatives and intent of the people for whom your vote can make a difference. Stay tuned for details!
In the meanwhile, you can also submit questions to be asked by the presenting candidates at the panel, as well as your rating on the issues the provincial government is charged with managing: healthcare, education, the environment, and the economy. https://forms.gle/EVhFfPaJZrHfkaVw8
The form will close on Monday at 11:59pm so get your responses in ASAP!

To all students who bought a tote bag, please come pick them up at the school store tomorrow (wednesday) at lunch. If you didn't get the chance to buy one and would like to, we have extras that we will be selling for $10 at the food day on thursday.

Hey MAC(kerel)!
Here at The Flounder, we understand the frustrations of February. Be it course selections or university applications, students are struggling to pick the right path to pursue their passions and avoid devastating decisions that direct them to their downfall.
This is why starting Tuesday (02/22/2022), The Flounder will be home to TWO new games to train these critical skills! Maneuver through the maze with mastery and maintain a measured composure as you elude explosions in minesweeper, available now at floundernews.tk/fun!

Hey Flounder Followers!
We know you've been missing your fabulous Flounder fix, but we're back with our first issue of the year!

After the last regular day of Semester 1 on Wednesday, January 26th (late start), Credit Rescue will take place at Mackenzie on Thursday January 27th, Friday January 28th, and Tuesday February 1st. Although no classes will take place during this time, you will still need to complete virtual attendance every day for each of the four days. On Monday January 31st, Guidance will be hosting virtual course selection assemblies on Zoom for Grades 9, 10, and 11 students.
You will complete attendance with your Week 1 teachers on all four days at the following times:

Week 1, Course 1 Attendance: 9:00AM - 9:15AM
Week 1, Course 2 Attendance: 12:15PM - 12:30PM

Please check your online classes (Brightspace or Google Meet) for information from your teacher’s about virtual attendance. You are only required to come to school on these days if you have an appointment scheduled with your teacher(s). If you don’t have an appointment scheduled, you will remain at home.
After the Credit Rescue days have ended, a reminder that Wednesday, February 2nd is a PA Day - see you for the first day of Semester 2 on Thursday February 3, 2022!

Schedule for Credit Rescue Days (Thursday, Friday, Tuesday):

Schedule for Course Selection (Monday):

An update from the TDSB: due to the snow storm, there will be no in-person or virtual learning for tomorrow (Tuesday January 18th).
Caveat that teachers may provide voluntary class work, and previously assigned work continues. To be sure, check with your teachers' online classrooms (Brightspace, Google Classroom, etc).

An update on the resumption of club activities on Monday, January 17th, 2022 from Mr. Quan, as of Saturday 15th at 4pm:
1) All Club and Council activities will switch to a virtual format for the time being. This includes all clubs and councils that declared as "in-person" at the beginning of the year. Google Meet and Zoom can be used as platforms to hold meetings - if you would like help setting this up, feel free to reach out to Mr. Quan or any member of Student Council. Also note that if you are planning to hold a meeting virtually, there can be no simultaneous physical congregating of members.
2) The continuation of any club and council activities is strictly up to the decision of the staff advisor. This return to in-person learning is another round of unprecedented uncertainty and its impact on teachers is individual and private. If staff advisors choose to put their club or council supervision duties on a pause, please respect this decision.

Here are a couple of announcements coming from admin this morning:


Grad Photots
Due to Covid Protocols, the Grad Photo Session scheduled for January 6th to the 14th has been postponed. Once the new Operational Guidelines have been released, session dates and booking instructions will be communicated. Students who already scheduled a photo session will have to rebook once the new dates are available.


Resource Room for Students with IEPs
Here is the Zoom link to access the Resource Room for tests or to drop-in for extra help. If you plan on writing a test with a Resource Teacher please sign up ahead of time on the Test Booking System (24hrs prior to time of test) so that the Resource teacher can access a copy of the test. The Resource Room will be open every period throughout the school day.

Period 1: Ms. Rankine
Period 2: Ms. Kerr
Period 3: Mrs. Teper
Period 4: Mr. Quan



Clubs Update
Quick Club and Council Update for January 20222: Due to the unforeseen switch to remote learning, ALL Clubs and Council Activities will be placed on a temporary pause, to be (re)evaluated on our new in-class start date of Jan 17. If you have any questions, please speak with your club or council executive. You may also contact SAC, Ms Mancini or Mr Quan for any further assistance.


Credit Recovery Day
Mackenzie will have a modified schedule on Wednesday January 12, 2022 for Credit Rescue Day. You will still have to connect with your Week 1 teachers for morning and afternoon attendance (schedule is below) at 9:00am and 12:15pm. Check your teachers' Brightspace or Google Classroom for instructions about attendance. The rest of the day is scheduled for virtual credit rescue by invitation only. Your teachers will contact you if you are invited to attend credit rescue and provide you with a Zoom / Google Meet link.

As the Ontario Government has mandated, we'll be resuming school starting this Wednesday, January 5th. Due to current circumstances surrounding the pandemic and the omicron variant, all learning will be virtual and remote until at least Monday, January 17th.
Before class starts tomorrow, be sure to check your teachers' Google Classroom and Brightspace pages for how you'll be meeting with them.
