SMP Weekly Update

Attendance Matters! Every Day Counts.
Submit your child’s absence via email: smpattendance@rdcrs.ca or call our attendance line 403-347-5650 ext 1. Please provide student's name, class, and reason for absence.
Consistent attendance and arriving on time build strong learning habits and help students feel connected to their classroom community. Missing just two days a month adds up to over three weeks of missed instruction across the school year, making it harder for students to keep up with reading and math skills.
Thank you for your partnership in prioritizing daily attendance and supporting our morning routines!

Important Safety Reminder: Outdoor Supervision Hours
To ensure all students are safe on school grounds, please note our staff supervision hours for drop-off and pick-up:
Morning Drop-off: Outdoor supervision begins at 8:35 a.m. Students should not arrive or be dropped off before 8:35 a.m., as there are no staff on duty outside to ensure their safety.
Afternoon Pick-up: Outdoor supervision ends at 3:38 p.m. Please ensure your child is picked up promptly at dismissal before 3:38 p.m.
Thank you for your partnership in keeping our school community safe and secure every day!
Parking Thank You!
Thank you so much for the amazing parent parking! It has been great greeting you in the mornings and after school. Know that the strip of parking between these two signs is a VERY QUICK way to drop off your student and continue moving! Please feel free to use this section if you do not have to leave your vehicle. The DROP & GO this provides is a great way to avoid searching for a parking spot!
