SES Weekly Update!
November 25-29, 2024
Hello SES families! Just one month until Christmas!
May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be confident knowing you are a child of God.
Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.
It is there for each and every one of us.

SES Sock and Mitten Drive
Our SES serves committee is ready for our next project - a sock and mitt drive for the Morning Star program through Catholic Social Services! Through the month of November we are asking staff and students to donate adult socks and mitts, and we will donate them to the Morning Star Program.
St. Mary's, Sacred Heart Parish Sacraments
Sacraments are physical signs of God's grace living through us. They are a direct link between our physical lives and the divine.
St. Mary's Parish will be offering sessions for any children or families interested in furthering their sacramental journey. If you are wondering about Baptism, Eucharist, or Reconciliation, please check with St. Mary's Parish at 403-347-3114, Sacred Heart Parish at 403-346-2618, or contact the school and we will help you however we can!
Parent Visitors
To maintain a safe and secure school building we ask that all visitors report to the main office. If you need to drop off something for your child, please leave it at the main office and we will ensure that the item gets to the student. All volunteers in the building are required to have previously submitted approved documentation. Thank you for your understanding.
New Messaging System!
Our office has moved to a new Messaging system for attendance alerts and messages (formerly SwiftReach). The new system has recently been updated with texting abilities! To opt-in, please see the attached information HERE! We will still be sending information via email as well, so be sure to check for messages from the following address:
broadcasts@schoolmessengermail.com.
We appreciate your patience as we transition to this new division-wide messaging system.
Thank you!
Your Feedback Matters!
We welcome any feedback you can give us to help us do the best we can to serve your children! If you have questions, kudos, concerns, even cries of outrage, we encourage you to voice your opinion using this form. We will do our best to respond to your feedback!
