Inform| Alberta Education Assurance Survey  

As part of our ongoing commitment to providing a world-class education for Alberta’s children, Alberta Education and Childcare will be conducting our annual survey of grades 4, 7 and 10 students and their parents or guardians. The survey will gather important information about students’ and parents’ school experiences and will help to inform continuous improvement in our education system. 

Students in grade 7 will complete the survey at school during the month of February.  

  • Students are provided with a single-use access code to log in and complete the survey confidentially.  
  • Students can skip questions for any reason and may opt out of the survey at any point.  
  • You can see examples of the survey questions your child receives online at www.alberta.ca/alberta-educationassurance-survey

Inform| Black History Month 

February is Black History Month, a time to recognize and celebrate the significant contributions and rich cultural heritage of Black Canadians. This month provides an important opportunity for learning, reflection, and deeper understanding within our school community. 

We invite families to join us in recognizing Black History Month and to continue these important conversations at home. Together, we can support student learning and help build a school community grounded in equity, respect, and inclusion.
