Principal's Message
Rocky View Schools - Superintendent of Schools announces leadership  announcements

Our second week of at-home learning concluded with kids and teachers remaining engaged in their synchronous, online learning. Thank you all for your continued commitment to this change.

A couple of notes heading into our last week before break.

1. Weekly learning plans - Dec 14 - 18, Jan 4 - 8,

Students can expect their learning plans for the week of Dec 14 - 18 by Monday, Dec 14 at 9:00 AM. Staff may send out their learning plans for January 4 - 8 prior to departing for winter break this Friday. This does not mean students have to complete the work over the break.

2. Next day of in person learning

A reminder that school will re-open for in person learning on Monday, January 11th. The first week back from break is still online.

3. Last day of semester 1 update

There have been some changes to the calendar with diploma exams being made optional and gr. 9 PAT's being cancelled.

Friday, January 22nd - Last Regular Day of Classes for Semester 1
Monday, January 25th - Wednesday, January 27th - Intervention/Reassessment opportunities to ensure students achieve their maximum credits for semester 1.
Thursday, January 28th - Transition from S1 - S2 day (grades are submitted to Alberta Education)
Friday, January 29th - Professional Learning Day

Students in diploma classes will see their final day be Tuesday, January 19th. If targeted intervention is needed for any gr. 12 students, they may be asked to attend the week of the 25th - 27th.

4. Students Wanting to Write Diplomas

There could be some circumstances where students want to write their diploma

 
  • home education students if required by a post-secondary institution
  • adult students who can write an exam without taking a course
  • students who do not have a passing mark from their teacher
  • students who want to raise their mark, or want to have a diploma exam mark on their transcript
  • students who are registered to rewrite a diploma exam and are not currently taking the course
We would request if you are interested in still writing the exam to email mcumberland@rockyview.ab.ca prior to winter break. Students do have up until the day of the exam but the earlier we know numbers of people still wanting to write the better planned we can be. For any questions about diplomas, feel free to reach out to your classroom teacher or rreed@rockyview.ab.ca.

Thanks again for all of your hard work - have a great rest of your weekend!

Students in Ms. Stachniak's Math 9 class found creative, at-home solutions to represent circle geometry. Well done kids and thanks for sharing Ms. Stachniak!
Our in-person learners and staff continued to support the Airdrie Food Bank by packaging up over 400 treat bags for Christmas. Such big hearts and helpful hands. Thanks everyone!
Lauren and Arianna were feeling festive in making their Sports Medicine 30 video about the rotator cuff! Great work girls and thanks for sharing!
