Hello, Wolf Pack Families! 

Here we are.  Iitaotsstoyii, in Blackfoot, describes when colder weather arrives for each of us.  As we settle back into routines and rhythms, we also settle into a changing season to learn within, together. 

On behalf of our teaching team, I would like to thank our families, students, and support staff for a successful return to classes, emphasizing effective teaching and learning as well as student safety and well-being.  We learn in community and each gesture of gratitude and support between one another is very appreciated.  As we resume normal operations across the province and system (CBE), we also continue to appreciate your patience and understanding as adjustments are made within a transitional time across schools and classrooms. 

Remembrance Day Activities 

This year, as with previous years, we will only be able to accommodate students/staff in our gymnasium for our annual Remembrance Day assembly. I would like to show appreciation to our music teacher Ms. Fion Chan for leading this year’s events alongside our Assistant Principal, Mr. Dan Tinaburri. 

Individual Program Plans (IPPs) 

If you did not yet receive a finalized version of your child’s IPP prior to the teacher strike, please know that our system has extended the deadline for teachers to complete documents and review them with families until November 28. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child(ren)’s teacher, directly. 

Parent-Student-Teacher Conferences 

In-person conferences will be held the evening of Thursday, November 27 and the morning of Friday, November 28.  Mark your calendars.  More details to come on sign-up through the Calgary Board of Education (CBE)’s Conference Manager.  Parents/guardians will sign up for conference times ahead of conferences.

Lifetouch (the vendor who takes school portraits/photos) has confirmed a new date for our school, Wednesday, November 19.  Retakes will occur December 10.
