Tofield School Principal’s Message: November 2026 Tofield School Principal’s Message: November 2026

Mr. Gordon Thompson, Principal (Grades 10-12)

Ms. Melissa Korpan Assistant Principal (Grades 7-9)

Mr. Clayton Roe Assistant Principal (Grades 5-6)

Lest We Forget: A Call for Cooperation


Dear Students, Families, and Community Members,

As we enter November, we take time to honour the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve in our military. Their courage and dedication protect the freedoms we hold dear. This reflection aligns closely with our school's mission to cultivate a welcoming, positive, and nurturing learning environment where every student, every day, is a success. Thank you for your continued partnership in prioritizing kindness, active listening, empathy, and respect in our Grades 5–12 school community.


Our school Remembrance Day program will be held at the Tofield School gym on Friday, November 6th, starting at 10:30 a.m.


Key Information & Communication Guidelines


Fall Break Reminder


We encourage everyone—students, staff, and families—to use the upcoming Fall Break to rest and recharge. This is an important opportunity to step back, relax, and prepare for the second half of Semester One.

  • Start of Break: End of the day on Friday, November 6, 2026.

  • Students Return: Monday, November 16, 2026.


Parent-Teacher Interviews


Parent-Teacher Interviews will occur on Thursday, November 5th, from 3:30-7:30. These meetings provide a focused time for the teacher to share updates on the child's strengths and areas for improvement and allow parents to learn about their child's academic performance, social interactions, classroom behavior, and learning style. These face-to-face meetings build trust and rapport between the family and the school. They ensure an open channel of two-way communication, which is essential for quickly addressing any future concerns.


Staff Communication Hours


We respect our employees’ wellness and their need for a work-life balance. Please note our communication policy for contacting teachers and school administration by telephone or email:

  • Availability Hours: Monday to Friday, 6:00 am to 6:00 pm.

  • Response Time: Staff will reply to communications at their earliest practical opportunity within these hours.


If you have questions about your child’s programming, behaviour, or other classroom-related concerns, please communicate directly with your child's teacher first.


Thank you for your ongoing support of our school community. Wishing all of our families a restful and peaceful Fall Break!


Warm regards,

Tofield School Administration

Digital Citizenship: Our Choices Matter Digital Citizenship: Our Choices Matter

Creating a safe, respectful and welcoming school community is a shared responsibility—both online and in person. As part of our digital citizenship learning, students are being reminded that the choices they make online can have an impact on themselves and others.

Students are encouraged to:

  • Post. Pause. Think. Stop and think before posting, sending, liking or sharing.

  • Don’t join in. What we say, share and do online can affect other people.

  • Check in. If something online does not feel right, talk to a trusted adult.

  • Speak up. If you see something that could hurt someone, tell an adult who can help.

  • Know when to step away. Sometimes the best choice is to put the device down and be present with the people around us.

We want every student to know that they have a role in creating a kind and positive online community. If something online feels confusing, uncomfortable or unsafe, they can always talk to a trusted adult at school.

Our goal is not to keep students away from technology, but to help them develop the skills and good decision-making they need to use it safely, responsibly and respectfully.


We appreciate parents reinforcing these same messages regularly at home and in the community. Supporting student safety and wellness is a shared responsibility, and consistent messaging across school, home, and community can strengthen its impact. By working together, we can help students develop the awareness, skills, and habits that support safety and well-being.

Mobile Device Expectations Mobile Device Expectations

To keep instructional time focused on learning, we remind families that personal mobile devices must be powered off (or set to silent) and stored in a backpack, bag, or locker during class time. We appreciate your partnership in reinforcing these expectations at home to minimize classroom disruptions.


We are honored to be part of your child’s educational journey. Thank you for your continued partnership as we work together to make 2026–2027 an incredible year for all our students.


Go Titans!

Winter is Here! Help Us Stay Warm & Safe at Recess Winter is Here! Help Us Stay Warm & Safe at Recess

User uploaded image
zoom_out_map

As the temperature drops and snow begins to fall, we want to make sure our Grade 5 and 6 students are fully prepared for outdoor recess. Recess is a crucial time for students to recharge, get fresh air, and burn off energy, but being outdoors during the cold winter months requires the right clothing.


Please Send Your Child with Proper Winter Gear

To keep your child warm, dry, and comfortable, please ensure they bring the following items to school every day:

  • Warm winter coat

  • Snow pants (essential for playing in the snow and staying dry)

  • Winter boots

  • Toque / Warm hat

  • Insulated gloves or mittens (an extra pair in their backpack is always a good idea!)

  • Neck warmer or scarf


Tip: Please label all winter items with your child's name to help us return any lost gear quickly!


Outdoor Snow & Winter Safety Rules

To ensure everyone has a fun, injury-free time in the snow, we have established a few important safety rules for all Grade 5/6 outdoor breaks:


  1. No Throwing Snowballs or Ice Chunks: While snow can be fun to play with, throwing snowballs, ice chunks, or packed snow can cause serious injuries. Snow must remain on the ground.

  2. Stay Off the Heavy Equipment Snow Hills: Snowbanks and hills created by snowplows and clearers are strictly off-limits. These piles can have hidden hazards, ice pockets, or steep slopes, and they are located near vehicle clearways.

  3. Keep Ice on the Ground: Please do not kick, pick up, or throw pieces of ice.

  4. Respect Personal Space & Play Safely: Be mindful of others when building snow forts, sliding, or playing group games.


Thank you for your cooperation in helping us maintain a safe, warm, and enjoyable winter season for all our students!

What is your absolute non-negotiable piece of winter gear?

Campus Update: Lunchtime Guidelines for Grades 5–12 Campus Update: Lunchtime Guidelines for Grades 5–12

As we settle into the rhythm of the school year, we’d like to share a quick refresher on our lunchtime campus guidelines to ensure all students remain safe, supervised, and accountable.


Grades 5 & 6: Closed Campus

Students in Grades 5 and 6 must remain on school grounds for the entire lunch period, where dedicated on-site supervision is provided in all eating and outdoor areas.


  • Leaving Campus: If your child needs to leave school grounds during lunch, a parent or guardian must sign them out at the main office or contact us directly beforehand.

  • Special Permission: If you would like your elementary student to have ongoing permission to leave campus at lunch, please contact the school office to request and complete the Consent for Travel off School Grounds (Parental Direction) form.


Grades 7–12: Open Campus

Students in Grades 7 through 12 are permitted to leave school grounds during the lunch hour. We trust our secondary students to be great ambassadors for our school in the surrounding community—staying safe, being respectful neighbors, and arriving back on time for their afternoon classes!


Thank you for your continued partnership in keeping our school day running smoothly and keeping our students safe. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to the school office.

Halloween! Halloween!

Spooktacular Halloween Spirits at Tofield School! 🎃👻

Halloween spirit was in full force across the hallways at Tofield School! Staff and students went all out in creative, coordinated group costumes that made this year's celebration one to remember.


Our faculty and staff brought iconic storybook and pop-culture moments to life:

  • 101 Dalmatians & Cruella: A huge pack of spotty Dalmatians filled the office, complete with Cruella de Vil herself and the trusty dog catcher keeping everyone in line! 🐾

  • The Wicked Witches: A spellbinding coven of colorful witches brought a extra dash of magic and mischief to the day. 🧹✨

  • Costume Highlights: From a Costco sample team handing out sweet treats to a Slytherin wizard, and a tin-foil hat conspiracy theorist holding a "TOP SECRET" dossier, the creativity was off the charts!


A big thank you to all our enthusiastic staff and students for dressing up, bringing energy to the school, and making Halloween 2026 such a fun and festive day for our entire Tofield School community!

Our gym transformed into a full interactive mini-golf course when Projct Golf Experience (PGX) visited our school! Students in Grades 5 through 8 had the chance to step away from traditional gym routines and try their hand at golf right on home turf.


The team from PGX set up a custom, mobile 9-hole mini-golf course complete with professional-grade turf, obstacles, and interactive skill stations. Whether students were seasoned players or picking up a club for the very first time, the event was all about inclusive play, learning proper swing technique, and having fun with classmates.


From practicing putting precision to navigating creative obstacles across the course, our middle schoolers brought plenty of energy, friendly competition, and high fives to the gym floor.

Senior High Volleyball Tournament Brings Energy to Tofield


For the first time in a number of years, Tofield School hosted its Senior High Volleyball Tournament on September 18 and 19. A total of five girls teams (Tofield, Sedgewick, Bashaw, Holden, and Hay Lakes) and five boys teams (Tofield, Holden, Bashaw, Forestburg, and Viking) competed across two days.


A huge thank you goes to C.W. Sears School for allowing the use of their gymnasium on both Friday and Saturday, as the tournament could not have taken place without their support. Games hosted at Tofield School were live-streamed, and great crowds came out to watch over the weekend. The 2027 Grad class ran a well-supported concession at Tofield School.


  • Girls Division: Bashaw defeated Tofield in the finals to take the championship title.


  • Boys Division: Tofield defeated Bashaw in the finals to clinch their first tournament victory of the season.


Overall, the event was a major success, and plans are already underway to host again next year.


Senior High Volleyball Season Updates


Both volleyball teams have a busy season schedule. Both squads have competed in tournaments at Augustana, the home tournament in Tofield, and Athabasca. The girls team also competed in Wetaskiwin, and the boys have upcoming tournaments scheduled in Hay Lakes and Vermilion.


Key Highlights:

  • Tournament Victory: The Senior High Girls won a tournament title in Forestburg on October 23 and 24.


  • League Play Underway: The Senior High league schedule has officially begun, featuring Tofield, Sedgwick, and STCA (Camrose) playing home-and-home games. Tofield has already matched up against STCA and Sedgewick.


  • New Boys Uniforms: The Senior High Boys received new jerseys, sponsored by ArrKann Trailer and RV and secured by Mr. Flasha.


  • Team Outing: Around 25 players and parents from the Senior High Boys team attended an ACAC College volleyball matchup between Augustana and Red Deer College at Augustana.


  • Provincial Ranking: The Senior High Boys team earned an Honorable Mention (HM) in the first 2A Boys Volleyball Provincial Rankings—marking the first time the boys team has been provincially ranked since 2013.


Sophie Neufeld Advances to Golf Provincials

After local tryouts reduced a field of six boys and one girl down to four total representative golfers per category, five Tofield golfers competed at the Zone Championships hosted at the Camrose Golf Course on Monday, September 21.


Sophie Neufeld posted the lowest score among all female competitors, earning back-to-back Central Zone 1A-2A Girls Golf Champion titles. Her performance qualified her for the ASAA Provincial Golf Championships, hosted by the Edmonton Zone on September 28 and 29 at Cougar Creek and Edmonton Springs Golf Courses. Sophie placed 46th overall among female golfers in the province.


Terry Fox Run Raises Over $300

Organized by Mr. Flasha and the Grade 9B Health class, this year's Terry Fox Run brought together Tofield School and C.W. Sears School. The event setup included punch cards, stickers, outdoor music, and invitations to local RCMP, EMTs, and volunteer coaches.


Students gathered in the gymnasium to view educational videos on Terry Fox before heading outdoors to complete their laps. A draw was held for students completing high lap counts, with three winning official Terry Fox t-shirts. The event raised just over $300.


Acknowledgments: Fall Senior High Coaching Staff

Special thanks to the dedicated coaches leading fall athletics programs:


  • Senior High Cross-Country Running: Theresa Jeffrey & Kyle Seiben


  • Senior High Golf: Darcy Shapka & Marcel Flasha

Hello, my name is Erin Sharp, and after years of teaching Math and Science, I’m excited (and a little nervous!) to be taking on a new adventure as Career Counsellor and Off-Campus Coordinator. I’ve always enjoyed getting to know students and helping them recognize their strengths, so this role feels like a natural extension of what I love about education.


Whether you’re thinking about trades, apprenticeships, university, college, the workforce, or simply trying to figure out what comes next, I’m here to help! I’m excited to get to know students in this new capacity and to support them as they explore the many paths available to them.


It's November! Applications for most schools are now open. Gr. 12s who still need to apply should continue to connect with their career counsellors for support.

Also, if you are in work experience with an approved work site and have collected September hours, get those signed timesheets uploaded to your off-campus Google Classroom. Remember, hours = credits!


Book with your career counsellor if you have any questions.

SCHOOL COUNCIL — COME BE PART OF IT! SCHOOL COUNCIL — COME BE PART OF IT!

Your voice. Your ideas. Your school.


School Council isn’t just about sitting around a table — it’s about having a voice in our school community!

Have an idea for Tofield School? Want to better understand what’s happening at school? Interested in meeting other parents and being part of the conversation? Come check us out!


Our Annual General Meeting is and we’d love to see some new faces.


What’s happening at the AGM?


✅Approving our updated Operating Procedures

✅Electing a Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary

✅Electing Directors to bring different perspectives and ideas to School Council


And here's something important:

No fundraising!


School Council does not have fundraising responsibilities or fundraising expectations. Our focus is on communication, collaboration, advocacy, and supporting a strong school community.

You don't need previous School Council experience. You don't need to know everything about education. You just need to care about our students and be willing to share your voice.


Whether you want to take on a leadership role, become a Director, or simply come out to learn more, there's a place for you at the table.


If you have questions about School Council and would like to learn more before the meeting, please email us ... tofieldschoolcouncil1@gmail.com

🍾 Cheers to the Future: Support the Class of 2027! 🍾 Cheers to the Future: Support the Class of 2027!

Do you have a growing mountain of juice boxes, soda cans, or milk jugs taking up space in your garage? You can turn that clutter into a contribution for our students!

We are excited to announce that the Grad Class of 2027 has officially launched an ongoing bottle drive fundraiser. All proceeds will go directly toward funding graduation festivities, ensuring our students have a memorable and inclusive celebration to cap off their high school journey.

📍 How It Works

Supporting the grads is simple. You don’t even need to knock on doors or wait for a specific collection date!

  1. Collect your refundables: Gather your aluminum cans, plastic bottles, and glass containers.

  2. Visit the TOFIELD Bottle Depot: Take your recyclables to the local depot at your convenience.

  3. Donate the Refund: Simply let the staff know before they start your order that you would like to donate your refund to the "Grad Class of 2027."



This initiative is running from now until May 2027. Whether it’s a single bag or a truckload from a weekend BBQ, every cent adds up over the next year!

Why it matters: Graduation represents years of hard work and dedication. Your donations help lower the costs of ceremonies and events, making sure every student can participate in the magic of their final year.



Thank you for your continued support of our schools and our future graduates. Let’s help the Class of 2027 reach their goal, one bottle at a time!
