Due to exciting changes for the 23/24 school year, Transportation registration will open June 12, 2023, at 8 am. ALL eligible riders will need to re-register for next school year. This will be done through the BRSD office. More information to follow next week.

Thank you to Mrs. Gumpinger (with the help of her Gr. 7-2 class) for leading our entire school through the Living Rosary during the FLEX block. Staff and students took full advantage of honouring our patron saint, Mary in this month of May which is also the month of Mary.

Staff and students also provided a beautiful blessing for Mrs. Perreaux as we recognized her retirement this week.

Yesterday, Sam Demma provided 2 presentations (MS and HS) at our school. His presentation was called "Empty Your Backpack"- it focused on mental health and choices. Sam was very dynamic and provided a great message for all our students.

The Camrose Police Service is looking for your feedback!

Dear Parents/Staff:

Since 1996, the Camrose Police Service has had the privilege of dedicating a full time police officer to perform the duties of the School Resource Officer (SRO) for the 10 schools in the City of Camrose.

Over the past couple of school years, the SRO has completed the transition from the previous “D.A.R.E.” program, to a more modern, and completely customized “C.O.R.E.” program for youth in our community.

The C.O.R.E Program’s main focus revolves around staying healthy to better serve the various communities youth are involved in. The four main themes of the C.O.R.E. Program are aligned with the Alberta Health curriculum and are as follows:

Caring for their body, mind, and spirit.

Online safety, integrity and responsibility

Relationship with self (mental health) and others based on respect and trust

Establishing healthy boundaries or healthy decision making

In addition to CORE instruction, the SRO is also engaged in a number of other school related activities including; preventative threat assessments and intervention, facilitating the Boys’ Council group, participating and volunteering at various special events, coordinating lockdown drills, and providing assistance to all of the local schools when situations require the police.

Despite some curriculum changes, the main objective of the SRO program has always remained the same – to build rapport between youth and the police, and to provide the highest level of safety possible to every school in Camrose.

In an effort to continue to optimize the SRO program, we are looking for your input by completing a brief survey to guide us moving forward.

We will also be surveying the students in Grades 6 to 12 prior to the end of the school year. These surveys are completely anonymous, and completely voluntary.

The Camrose Police Service wants to thank you for all of the support through the school year. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!

The survey is located at www.ourcamrose.ca/cps Please complete the survey prior to June 27, 2023

The EICS Board of Trustees approved the 2023/24 school year calendars at the February Board meeting. Both Camrose school calendars are attached below.
