Notes From the Office
Absences or Late Arrivals: Please email: cgabsences@fmpsd.ab.ca if you are aware that your student will be absent or late. For early pickups or changes to pickups, families should contact the office via phone.
CG Gear: Our online store is up and running for the year. Check out https://christinagordon.entripyshops.com/ to order school clothing. There is a wide variety of styles, logos, and colours to choose from!
Hot Lunch Program: Hot Lunch ordering for the month of November is now open. Ordering will be open from the 1st to the 20th of each month in order to order for the following month. When placing your order you may notice a button to Volunteer for Hot Lunch days. Please consider volunteering to help sort and organize Hot Lunch from 11:30 am-12:30 pm. This program will not continue to run without the support of parent volunteers. To place your order click on the following link (https://christinagordon.hotlunches.net) and refer to the instructions below (Digital Take Home Folder). If you have any questions you can contact our Hot Lunch team at cgshotlunch@outlook.com.
Lifetouch Photos: There is no school code required to access Lifetouch photos this year. To access your student's photos, login to the FMPSD Parent Portal and click on the "Student Fees" page. Your student's student number is listed on the "Student Fees" page. That is the number that you will use instead of a school access code. If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact the office at (587) 276-2017.
Dress for the Weather: As the winter season approaches, we would like to remind you to ensure your students are prepared for colder temperatures and potential snowfall. Please send your students to school with appropriate winter clothing such as: coats, hats, gloves, scarves, and waterproof boots. This will enable them to participate comfortably in outdoor activities and recess during cold or wet weather. If there are students and families who are in need of assistance in the above, please do not hesitate to reach out to your classroom teacher or the office for support! We have a number of ways that we can assist in keeping students safe and warm this winter. One way that families can access support is to connect with CarolAnne or Wendy with our local Salvation Army at (780) 743-4135.
