Questions About Uniform?
Questions About Uniform?
We've put together this handy guide that covers our uniform policy.
Here we go!
Here we go!
Here we go! We had our first official 2020-2021 faculty meeting this morning. We met virtually and discussed implementation of the many new policies and strategies we have been planning for over the summer. The month of August is typically the “two-a-days” for teachers during a typical school year. This year is looking more like “three-a-days” as we do our regular school preparations along with safety re-entry preparations. This week teachers will be planning with their grade levels, helping prepare for a safe re-entry, and solidifying their in person teaching plans as well as their RLO (remote learning option) plans.
We will be hosting five different virtual Orientations this week for our Preschool, Junior Kindergarten, and Kindergarten families as well as our 1-8 New Families. We want to wish all of you a great start to our 2020-2021 school year and welcome you to our Viking family! We are so happy you are here!
As we get started with this unprecedented school year, I ask that we begin the year with gratitude. We are so grateful for our St. Albert community. No matter what the school year looks like, we will work together to provide the safest environment, both physically and emotionally, while challenging students academically and growing spiritually. Thank you for your continued support as we “jump in” together. We may not know exactly what our 2020-2021 school year is going to look like, but we know it is going to be a great one!

RLO DEADLINE PUSHED BACK
RLO DEADLINE PUSHED BACK
Since our start date for school has been pushed back one week to August 19, we will also be pushing back the date to notify us about choosing the Remote Learning Option. If you would like to choose the Remote Learning Option for August, you will need to notify Lindsay Finley (lfinley@stalbert.org) by Wednesday, August 12. We will still be doing RLO on a month to month basis so that if you are wanting to make a change to in person instruction from RLO or RLO to in person instruction you will need to do that by the 25th of each month.
Thank you for your patience and understanding during these continually changing times.
