It is important for student and staff safety that you drop your students at the doors.

If you need to enter the school, please come to the office and sign in. Parents should not be entering the school through side doors. It is important that we know who is in the building.

Supervision begins at 8:25. Students will not be allowed in the school before as there is not supervision in the school.

Please make sure they enter through their designated doors.

Please notify the office before 2:45 pm if you need to pick your child up early. It is hard for teachers to answer their classroom phones as they teach until 3:07. Thanks for your cooperation with this.

Please review the expectations as a family. We will be making some changes to our existing Cell Phone Expectations to specifically include all Personal Mobile Devices (PMD) to align with Alberta Education’s Ministerial Order.

Expectations include the following:

i. All personal mobile devices need to be powered off / silent and stored in student lockers

ii. Students may not access social media on school networks or school devices

Parents will be notified via email for first and second offenses, PMDs will be confiscated and stored in the office for the student to pick up at the end of the day. On third and subsequent offenses a school administrator will contact the parent and the parent will be responsible for picking up the PMD from the office.

Communication is important to our community, we make every effort to keep parents informed. Important information that needs to be sent immediately is shared with parents via email and/or text messages and telephone calls via our messaging system.

STP Week at a Glance will be posted on social media accounts, sent to parents via text and posted to the school website.
