Progress Reports – New This Year
We are pleased to announce that we have a new reporting program being used throughout Black Gold School Division.
Progress reports will no longer be emailed to parents/guardians.
Student progress reports will now be located in the Parent Portal, and the student portal.
Parents/Guardians will have to login to their Parent Portal account to view progress reports.

Spreading the Voyageur Spirit
If you have a child who has outgrown their Voyageur apparel and would like to share the school spirit with others, please send your clean apparel to school and bring it to Miss Thompson. We will be offering students, who may not otherwise have the opportunity, to choose an item to show their school spirit.
