We would like to encourage you to read through this Handbook as it contains a lot of valuable information that will help you get comfortable at your new school.
Checklist
The following is a checklist that will be helpful to get you registered and ready to start your schooling at our school:
- Register with the school – registration online is preferred but paper forms are available at the school office.
- Call the school or stop by to let us meet you prior to starting. This allows us an opportunity to give you a school tour and for both parties to ask questions not included in the general registration. Please note that upon registering, the school will require some time to prepare for your child’s arrival to give them the best possible experience. A start date can be discussed during your visit or the initial phone call.
- School Supplies – you will find a list of supplies at the end of this handbook. Please refer to that to ensure your child has the supplies needed.
- School Year Calendar – You will also find a School Year Calendar located at the end of this handbook. This is an important document as it lists school days, holidays, and some special events that will occur during the school year.
- Edsby – upon registering, you will receive an email invitation to Edsby. This is the main communication tool between parents and the school. It is important that you create an account and use this tool on a regular basis. You can learn more about Edsby within the pages of this handbook.
- SchoolCash Online – is a useful tool for payments to the school. It allows you to pay for school expenses such as milk, pizza, and other expenses that may come up throughout the school year. You will receive an email invite to this upon registration. Please be sure to check out the section on Milk & Pizza for information regarding our milk and pizza cards/sales.
- School Fees – at this time, there are no student fees required. There may be instances throughout the year where activities will require payment but that is done on an as-needed basis.
- Busing – To register for the bus, please visit www.srsd119.ca. Under Transportation at the bottom of the page you will find a link called School Busing Request Form. Please click that link and complete the form. You are also welcome to contact the school to get the name and contact information of your child’s bus driver.
