As the seasons begin to shift and we look ahead to warmer days, we also turn our attention to the exciting preparations for the 2025/26 school year! Below, you'll find important reminders about Returning Student Registration, Soccer Academy Registration, and our upcoming Celebration of Learning Evenings.
Returning Student Registration Open!
Families were sent an official email from St. Albert Public Schools on Monday, March 3, with instructions for completing Returning Student Registration. All families who complete their
Returning Student Registration before Friday, March 14, will be entered into a draw for free SAM clothing!

We are excited to invite all SAM families to our annual Celebration of Learning on March 12 and 13. This special event is an opportunity for students to proudly showcase their learning experiences with you. During this evening, your child will guide you through several interactive classroom stations, highlighting their hard work and achievements from throughout the year. Unlike the Parent-Teacher-Student Conferences held earlier, the Celebration of Learning is student-led, offering a unique and engaging glimpse into your child's daily learning environment.
To ensure that every family can comfortably visit their child's classroom, we have organized 30-minute sign-up slots, accommodating up to four families at a time. Please keep in mind that these sessions are not individual meetings with your child's teacher; other students and families will be present in the classroom during your visit.
Sign-ups are now open! You can select your preferred time slot directly through our school website: Celebration of Learning Sign-Up.
We look forward to welcoming you and celebrating your child's learning journey together!
Each month at our SAM Spirt Assembly we will recognize the incredible contributions of our students, staff, and volunteers who help make SAM an amazing school to come to every day. The SAM SPIRIT Award is a monthly themed award where teachers choose a few students from their class to recognize for demonstrating our SAM SPIRIT qualities. This month, we recognized our Winner of Hearts who always find a way to make others feel good about themselves! Congratulations to our SAM Spirit Award Winners!
