Alberta Education Assurance Survey
The Alberta Education Assurance (AEA) survey gathers feedback on the quality of education provided by school authorities and their schools. Schools and school authorities use this information to understand how they are doing and plan for the future.
Who gets a survey?
The AEA survey is sent (by Alberta Education) to parents or guardians of students in Grades 4, 7, and 10.
Teachers and students in Grades 4 & 7 complete the survey online at school.
Take the survey
Parents or guardians receive a survey invitation package by mail and have the option to complete the survey on paper or online using the provided Random Access Code (RAC). Parents or guardians with more than one student in an eligible grade will receive a separate survey invitation package for each child.
Only parents or guardians of students in participating grades will receive a survey invitation package to complete the survey.
Responding to the survey is voluntary. Deadline to complete the survey is March 17, 2023.

Food Deliveries from Businesses
With the easy online access to food delivery services (e.g. Uber Eats, Skip the Dishes, et al.) we have seen an increase in delivery people coming to the school with food deliveries. Some of the deliveries have interupted lessons in the classrooms as a result of students leaving class to pick up late deliveries or to complete payment/transactions.
We ask that students bring a lunch from home or that food deliveries only be made by parents or guardians around the designated lunch times. Please contact an administrator at the school if you have any questions about this or in the event of an exceptional circumstance.
Fundraising Society News
Our next Fundraising Society meeting is coming up on February 27th at 6:30pm. We are meeting in person and online.
It was decided at our last meeting that we will have a March movie night so we’ll hear more about those details on Feb 27th and we’ll have the latest update on the plans for the outdoor classroom project.
The Fundraising Society is looking for corporate sponsorships so make sure you pass along our info to any businesses that you think might donate to the outdoor classroom project. We still need to raise approximately $100,000.
