A Year at a Glance: 2026-2027 ECSD School Calendar
First Day Information
For the first day of school, doors will open at 8:00 am. On this special day, we welcome all families to enter through the front doors, per SAB tradition, where they will be greeted by the school administration. Once in the school, staff will be available to assist any families who require help finding their classes.
North Parking Lot
Please note that the City of Edmonton will need access to the parking lot on the north side of our school from September 2 - 4. For safety reasons, the parking lot will not be available anytime after 9:00 am on September 2 until the end of the day on September 4. Families are still able to park in the north parking lot to drop their children off on the first day of school; however, all vehicles will need to be removed by 9:00 am.
Class Lists
Class lists will be posted the first day of school and families will receive a welcome letter from their child’s teacher the evening of September 1. Teachers spend a great deal of time creating these lists based upon a number of factors that have been carefully considered. Making even one change creates a ripple effect that can be extremely difficult to navigate. We respect the decisions of our teachers and therefore, no changes will be made. We appreciate your understanding in this regard.
Epipens and Medication
If your child requires medication at school, a medication form must be filled out and returned to the office. The form can be download from the SAB website: Medication Form. If the medication is prescription, the form must be signed by a doctor. For student safety, we would recommend that rather than epipens being kept in student’s backpacks where they go back and forth between home and school, that we have one kept in a central location at the school. Please indicate this to your child’s teacher.
2026-27 School Supplies
Please see the link below, with lists of the school supplies required for each grade. If you ordered supplies through Write-On Stationery, the box of supplies will be in your child's classroom when they arrive the first day of school.
