2022-2023 EICS Assurance Survey is Open!
Dear EICS Parents,
The following information was recently emailed to you as well:
In our ongoing pursuit to refine how Elk Island Catholic Schools provides faith-integrated education and support to all of our students, we’ve launched our Assurance Survey for the 2022-2023 school year.
This is an opportunity for you to let us know what your thoughts are on how well we’re addressing our mission to develop educational opportunities in the context of Gospel values, to celebrate and nurture students, and to guide them on a lifelong spiritual journey.
Your feedback will be anonymous and welcomed to assist with guiding the decision-making process as EICS plans for the future.
To help us gain a comprehensive understanding of how we’re doing, similar Assurance surveys are also being provided to all students and EICS staff.
Please take the time to complete this survey when it is convenient for you. If you are the parent or guardian of multiple children who are attending EICS schools, we ask that you take the time to reflect on each child’s individual experience and fill out a survey for each child. We recognize that their experiences may be different and wish to obtain a greater understanding of these differences in the survey.
To begin the survey, please click here: EICS Parent Assurance Survey 2022-2023
To ensure your feedback is received, all surveys must be completed by Friday, February 17.
If you have any questions about the survey, please email us as eicsassurance@eics.ab.ca.
Thank-you for sharing your voice with EICS.
Semester II starts-Tuesday Jan. 31st!
The month of January is nearly at an end-it has been a long stretch for students and staff after returning from Christmas break. Semester II will bring some minor changes for Middle School students in reference to timetables. Our Gr. 9-12 students will begin new courses as they have completed their Semester I session. All changes for students will be reflected on their PowerSchool bell schedules for their easy viewing.
Report Cards will be available for viewing through Powerschool on Friday, February 3rd by the end of the day. We look forward to the second half of the year at OLMP!
God Bless!

Dear Parents and Guardians:
In the spirit of community and Reconciliation, parents, guardians, and families of EICS students are invited to join us in a Tea and Bannock evening held at Central Learning Services (310 Broadview Road) in Sherwood Park on Tuesday, February 7, from 6:30-8:00 p.m.
This is an opportunity to meet and engage with Elders and Knowledge Keepers who connect with our EICS schools, supporting the continued growth in student and staff knowledge of Indigenous ways of knowing and being.
