 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.

Wilma Hansen School Parent Council

Dear Wilma Hansen School Families,

The first meeting was held last night after the Open House and we'd like to thank those that were able to stay longer to attend and welcome everyone to the next meeting, which is the Annual General Meeting on October 22, 2026.

The Parent Association is seeking volunteers for our December 5–6, 2026 casino fundraiser at Pure Casino (1420 Meridian Rd NE, Calgary). New this year, each volunteer shift earns a $100 credit toward 2026–2027 field trips and other school-based fees. No prior experience is needed—training will be provided.
