Elk Island Field Trip Policy (AP260) states that all students shall be transported to and from a field trip using school provided transportation when provided. If there are extenuating circumstances where your child needs to have alternate transportation, it must be approved prior to the day of the field trip by the Principal.

Please reach out to the school if you have any questions about the policy or procedures.

If your child has an Individual Program Plan (IPP or ISP), you will be receiving an email soon from their teacher (or lead teacher if in Junior High) that will include a PDF copy of their plan along with a link to a Permission Click form where you can acknowledge receipt of the plan and sign off on the plan electronically. If, after reading the plan, you have any questions or suggestions, please reach out to the sending teacher for some clarification before completing the Permission Click form.

If you have any questions about this slight change in process from previous years, please reach out to our counsellor, Mrs. Marks.

With the recent fires in Jasper, and elsewhere in Alberta and BC, hitting home with so many of our families, we have selected this year's Cash4Care organization to be Alberta Wildfires Appeal, run through the Red Cross (https://give.redcross.ca/page/24AWA).

Leadership classes will help promote Cash4Care each month for each Early Out theme days. Cash donations will be collected after announcements on early out days.
