 RND grad Cory Greenwood (93) has made the 53 man roster for the Kansas CIty Chiefs After a preseason of learning playbooks, intense physical training and competition at the highest level of the sport, Cory Greenwood (RND '03) has made the final 53 man roster of the Kansas City Chiefs. Through four preseason games, Greenwood registered 5 tackles and 1 pass defended, but showed real promise on special teams - even earning press conference praise from head coach Todd Haley. In the final preseason game, Greenwood nearly blocked a punt, then made a key block on a 44-yard return on the same play. In making the active roster, Greenwood will feature primarily on special teams, but will also back up the linbacker position. The CIS all-star also brings an ability to long snap - antoher skill that contributed to his making the team. The roster may stil undergo some change as teams look at players cut by other teams that may help strengthen the squad. Following his time as a Panther, Greenwood moved on to Ottawa in the Quebec Junior Football League before joining the Concordia Stingers to play university football. Greenwood was selected as the President's Trophy winner following his final season at Concordia as the top defensive player in the country. The Toronto Argonauts (drafted #3 overall) retain his CFL rights. The Regiopolis-Notre Dame community congratulates Cory on this outstanding success. Look for #93 playing on Monday Night Football vs the San Diego Chargers on September 16th. |

RND Athletics - Fall 2010 Preview |
|
Sunday, 29 August 2010 |
 Martin Freundorfer & the Sr Boys Volleyball team will look to repeat The 2009-2010 athletic season was one to remember at RND, with Panther teams winning twelve team championships through the year - six in the fall alone. Here's a look at what to you'll see around RND this coming fall. Junior boys volleyball will look to win their sixth KASSAA championship in eight years, while the junior girls basketball squad look for trophy number ten in a long string of local dominance. The two-time defending champion cross country team will look for the midget and junior aged runners moving up to continue to put up strong results, while the ever growing field hockey squad will try to make it two in a row despite graduating some key players. The RND senior girls basketball team captured their first KASSAA crown in over twenty years last fall, and will field a strong, experienced squad once again this year. The biggest target in the city may be the defending provincial champion senior boys volleyball team - returning several key players while adding some strength from the aforementioned juniors.  Jory McDonald will help lead the way back to KASSAA Buoyed by the success of the CATS football program, the RND football teams will look to build on some momentum picked up in regular season play last year. The juniors will have a host of grade nines to choose from when tryouts begin, while the seniors return players in key positions and add some veteran junior talent. Tryouts will begin during the first week of school. Keep an eye on the RND Scoreboard for times and locations, as well as scheduling, forms and general athletic department information. New transfer rules are in effect this school year, so new students to RND should pay particular attention to the Scoreboard, and speak to any potential coach about your transfer. Come out to support the RND teams during the KASSAA season. |

Aboriginal Self-Identification |
|
Thursday, 02 September 2010 |
|
In September 2009, the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board implemented a Voluntary, Confidential Self -Identification procedure. Self-Identification is a way for parents and guardians of students under 18 and students over 18 to let the Algonquin and Lakeshore schools know if a student is of Aboriginal ancestry. The process is voluntary and the information gathered will be kept confidential. No proof of ancestry is required. Students already attending school can indicate their Aboriginal ancestry on the student update form or by filling out the Voluntary, Confidential Aboriginal Self-Identification form at anytime through out the school year. New students or students changing schools can self-identify at the time of registration.
