Message from Administration

Du bureau de M Fehr/Desde el escritorio del Sr. Fehr

Buenos dias/Bonjour:

Wow - what a snowy day!! Unfortunately, we had to keep students in for both recesses today.  It looks like more cold tomorrow and then it should start warming up.  ¡Esperemos! Please leave home a few minutes early in the morning so that you increase the chance of making it to school on time.  Merci beaucoup!

We would like to remind families to take a few minutes to complete two very important surveys.

The Westgate School Council Parent Survey takes approximately five minutes, is anonymous and can be completed on any device: phone, tablet or computer. The feedback collected will be shared with the School Council Executive as well as myself, Sra. McCruden and the school community. The survey will remain open until this Wednesday, February 8th and can be accessed at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/V53ZN62.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please email School Council at westgateschoolcouncil@gmail.com.

The Accountability Pillar Survey was mailed to parents/guardians of students in grades 4, 7 & 10 in January.

It is very important that parents/guardians complete the survey and return it to Alberta Education. Alberta Education and the public use the results of the Accountability Pillar Survey to assess satisfaction with the quality of education in our schools. In addition, the Calgary Board of Education uses the information to improve teaching and learning for your children.

When you complete the survey: If you “Don’t Know” the answer to a particular question, please skip that question and go to the next one, unless you want your response to count as a negative one.

Your participation in the survey helps provide important information on the quality of education your child is receiving, so we encourage you to return your survey promptly.

For those that have already complete the surveys, we thank you for your time.

Have great day!
