The Romero English Department is taking part in a PowerSchool Pilot Project, with the support of the ECSD Assessment Consultant. While this will not change much for daily instruction, you may notice small changes in your child’s PowerSchool and how you view their grades. One important detail to note is that this year, your child’s grade will be based on their three most recent assessments in each of the nine outcomes. If you have any questions about the Pilot or Outcomes Based Assessment, please reach out to your child's teacher or to the ELA Department Head, Landy Haltiner.

If a student or guardian would like to discuss any of the following topics, please feel free to make an appointment:

1. Alberta High School Diploma Credentials

2. Creating a mypass

3. Research and Career Planning

4. Creating an Apply Alberta Account – Apply to Post Secondary

5. Scholarship Information

St. Oscar Romero High School has an account with the Callingwood Bottle Depot!

Next time you head to the depot, let the staff know you’d like your refund directed to St. Oscar Romero High School.

Every bag makes a difference.

Clean out the garage, cash in those empties, and help support our students along the way!

Thank you for supporting St. Oscar Romero one bottle at a time!

Our SOR Fundraising Society is excited to use SkipTheDepot as an easy and environmentally friendly way to raise funds for our school. By donating refundable bottles and cans through the app, families can support our initiatives without any extra cost.
