No School on Friday
There is a non-instruction day this coming Friday, April 19. There are no classes for students.
Traffic Safety
The weather seems to be improving and spring is on the way! With better weather, we are seeing an increase in the number of students walking and riding to school. It is extremely important to watch out for students crossing the street and school parking lot before and after school. We have seen a recent increase in the number of vehicles entering the parking lot, making illegal u-turns, stopping in unsafe locations such as crosswalks, and blocking driveways.
We all have a part to play in keeping students safe. Please choose safety over convenience.
Volunteer Appreciation Day
Volunteer Appreciation Week is April 14-20, and what a perfect time to say “thank you” to our dedicated volunteers than to have a celebration afternoon just YOU! Please join us on Thursday, April 18th from 1:30pm – 2:30pm so we can show our appreciation for the profound impact you have on the success of our students and our school! Please RSVP by April 16th to captainnicholagoddard@cbe.ab.ca . Thank you for your contribution to our school community!
Music Program
Before/After school rehearsals are starting up again soon as we prepare for our final Spring Concert and other performance opportunities.

School Play: “Skin” by Dennis Foon
You are invited to see this year's stage production of “Skin” by Dennis Foon on Thursday April 25 & Friday April 26 at 7pm in the Aux Gym.
“This is a play about racism in all its insidious forms, and how it affects the self-image of several teenagers. Canada is a very progressive country, and I love it dearly, but it’s by no means perfect.” Dennis Foon
If you would like tickets for this year's production, please click on the link below and fill out the form. Soon after you have filled out the form, we will prepare your tickets and send them home with your child.
