 School Parking lot is off limits

Please do not enter, stop, or park in the parking lot during the school day.

 

Given that there are no parking stalls available for public use and given that dropping off students in the parking lot is prohibited (and extremely unsafe), there is no reason for any parent/guests to be driving in the school parking lot, before, during and after school.

 

Bus zones, Handicap Parking zones and the school parking lot should not be used at anytime for dropping off or picking up students. This is in accordance with CBE policy to ensure the safety of all students.

 

If you are parking on the other side of the street, please insist that your children use the crosswalks, and not jay walk. Parents and students jaywalking between buses is extremely problematic, and we ask that parents/students obey the law and not jaywalk. Pedestrians should cross the street at corners and crosswalks only.

Attendance

We would like to remind families to please report student absences using the school’s designated attendance line/extension, 403-777-7430 Ext 0. Messages left on the main school voicemail/email are not checked as frequently throughout the day, which may result in delays in recording your child’s absence.

 

Please make sure to spell the student’s last name and include the date of the absence in the message.

 

Alternatively, you can email Mrs. Crane in the main office at: decranemctaggart@cbe.ab.ca.

Cross Country Schedule

Monday, September 21

Final Race – North Glenmore Park

All races will take place at North Glenmore Park (7305 Crowchild Trail SW, Calgary, AB T3E 5N5). For families attending the races, the two parking lots that are most convenient are Lot E, which is closest to the start line, and Lot D, which is closest to the finish line.

All students are required to sign in with Mrs. Rocker before their race and sign out with her once their race is finished so that we know where everyone is at all times.

Please note that transportation to and from all Cross Country meets must be provided by a parent/guardian. We appreciate your support in helping our runners have a safe, successful, and enjoyable Cross Country season!
