Before and After School Supervision
Please remember that student supervision begins at 8:15 am each day. Students are welcome to enter the building to get ready for classes to begin at 8:27 am. Between 8:15 and 8:27 am, teachers are supervising inside their classrooms and the hallways. Students are encouraged to use this time to connect with friends and prepare for learning.
Students are dismissed at 3:00 pm (Monday to Thursday) and 12:41 pm (Friday). Kindergarten to Grade 3 teachers will accompany their students outside and will remain for approximately 5 minutes each day. After this time, parents are expected to supervise their own children if they wish to remain or play at the school.
Student Safety
To ensure the safety of all our students, please remember the following at the beginning and end of the day:
· No Student drop off or pick up in the staff parking lot.
· No stopping/parking in our bus zone. Please use designated parking areas or drop off zone.
· Please use crosswalks when crossing the streets.
Absence / Lates
If your child is going to be absent or late please call the office before school begins at 403-777-6790 to let us know. This will help us ensure all students are safe and that their attendance record will be accurate. Once you have reached the office:
1. Press 1, and leave your message on the Attendance Line
2. Please let us know your child’s first and last name, teacher; and the reason for the absence.
Illness & Medical
Please see our Illness & Medical Page for illness and medical information.
If your child has a new medical condition, please contact the school.
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 available after September 2024.
Just a friendly reminder that students will need to bring their own spoons & forks with their snack and lunch as we have a limited supply to give out. Students DO NOT have access to hot water or microwaves.
