Illness & Medical

Registration & Forms
Yellow school bus riders (registration done every school year)
If your child will be taking the yellow school bus (fee for service) and you have not registered yet, please ensure you do this right away as you cannot ride the bus until you are registered and the paperwork is processed. This can take several weeks. Please register through your My CBE Account. For more information about transportation, please see https://cbe.ab.ca/schools/busing-and-transportation/Pages/default.aspx
If you have registered for the school bus but your child is not riding home on the school bus please let the office know as we do take attendance each day.
Please use My School Bus Monitor and My Bus Stop to keep up-to-date on bus delays:
Lunch Supervision Registration
If your child will be staying at the school during the lunch hour, you will need to register for Lunch supervision. You can register and pay using your MyCBE/Powerschool account. Lunch supervision registration and fees will be posted to your account after September 2026.
Just a friendly reminder that students will need to bring their own spoons & forks with their snack and lunch as we only have a limited supply. Students DO NOT have access to hot water or microwaves.
