Pack Leader's Post
As we get closer to the end of another incredible school year, we want to take a moment to celebrate all that our students, staff, and families have accomplished together. This year has been filled with growth, learning, laughter, and connection—and it wouldn't have been possible without your continued support.
A special congratulations goes out to our Grade 9 students! You have grown into thoughtful, capable young leaders, and we are so proud of everything you’ve achieved. As you prepare to move on to high school, know that you leave behind a lasting legacy and that you will always be part of the Pack! We can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll do next!
Farewell to Mr. Bachor
It is with mixed emotions that we share the news that Mr. Bachor, who has been a valued member of our school community since 2006, will be leaving us at the end of this school year. Mr. Bachor has accepted an exciting new opportunity to join the Sports 4 Life program at Cloverbar Junior High. The legendary DJ Bachor has a storied history of bringing dedication, care, and energy to the hallways of Lakeland Ridge. We are sad to see him go, but wish him all the best in this new chapter of his career.

2024-25 School Fees
REMINDER: 2024-25 school fees
School fees for the 2024-25 school year are posted on the PowerSchool Parent Portal. All fees are due within 30 days of being posted. Throughout the year, fees are often added to cover the costs for various activities, such as field trips, extracurricular activities, and late, damaged or lost textbooks.
To access your fee information, simply log in to the PowerSchool Parent Portal and go to “Student Fees.” There you can view fees and pay them online using a Mastercard or Visa credit or debit card. Make sure to monitor your child’s account on an ongoing basis.
For more information about school fees, waivers and payment deadlines, visit eips.ca/schools/fees. And, if you have questions, think there’s an error or need help creating a PowerSchool Parent Portal account, contact your child’s school directly before the summer break.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Pursuant to Board Policy 23: School Fees and Administrative Procedure 505: School and Administrative Fees, EIPS will forward any unpaid 2024-25 fee amounts to a collection agency. To prevent this from happening, remember to pay your fees before Aug. 31, 2025. Unpaid fees may also result in students being ineligible for extra curricular activities such as sports as well as complementary courses that have higher costs.
Nature Wanderers Childcare
Next year, Lakeland Ridge will be hosting a private childcare company, called Nature Wanderers Childcare. They will offer childcare for Kindergarten age students on off days as well as before and after school care for students up to age 12.
For any inquiries please reach out to Nature Wanderers directly.

Class Considerations for 25-26
In the coming weeks, we will begin the process of creating class lists for the next school year. This is a carefully planned and thoughtful process that requires considerable time and attention to detail. We work hard to balance a variety of factors, including academic needs and social-emotional considerations to ensure each student is placed in the most supportive environment for their learning.
As in past years, we will not be taking classroom or teacher requests. Thank you for your understanding as we work to create a positive and productive learning environment for all students.
Grade 1 Summer Reading Kits!
Pick up a summer reading kit for your child in Grade 1!
The Strathcona County Library prepares reading kits for Grade 1 students to encourage children to practice reading throughout the summer so they can build on their newly acquired reading skills. The kit is free and contains fun activities to keep students reading all summer long. Kits are available from June 1 to Aug. 24, 2025. Families can pick up kits from the main floor Information Desk at the Library or meet the Bookmobile at any of its weekly stops. Library staff ask families to bring their children to pick up their kits in person so staff members can meet them and welcome them to the library.
