Fort Saskatchewan Elementary

Pride, belief, determination.  We have seen all three in remarkable color over the past weeks at the Olympic Games.  I have never been more proud to be Canadian! 

In the upcoming months we will be focusing on the character ed. trait of "determination".  The games will  provide us with an incredible array of living examples of what determination can mean, and how we can work with equal determination in our day to day lives to achieve our dreams.  We believe!

We look forward in the month of March to warmer days, lots of puddles, and spring break.  Report cards will be shared with parents on March 19, conferences will follow on March 23 and 24.  This round of conferences will see some slight changes to our "Celebrations of Learning" in the fall.  Teachers will be arranging private conferences for some parents, thus we ask that all families respect and adhere to conference times.  Childcare will once again be offered in the gym during both evenings.

Please enjoy and be safe during the upcoming break! 

  

In partnership with the Fort Saskatchewan Lions Club, the Grade 5 students at Fort Elementary have collected old broken and unwanted eyeglasses.  Students from Mr. Schell's and Mr. Ching's classes managed to collect an astounding 191 pairs of used eyeglasses.

These eyeglasses will be re-furbished by Lions Club members and given to people in third world countries.  This will give many the gift of clear vision and sight, something they would not otherwise have.

On Wednesday, March 10 four students will be attending a meeting of the Fort Saskatchewan Lions' Club to present the Fort Lions with all the glasses the Grade 5 students have collected.  What a great effort, grade 5 students!
