November 10


Thank you to our teachers and students for making our Remembrance Day Assembly so meaningful. We are proud of the respect and attentiveness shown by our students. It was heartening to students demonstrate their understanding of the importance of Remembrance Day and reflected on those who served our country. 

  

Please note that there will be no school on November 11-13 due to Remembrance Day and fall break. Classes will resume on Monday, November 16th.

Student Participation in Annual K-3 CBE Student Surveys 

Each year, Calgary Board of Education (CBE) students are invited to participate in surveys that gather feedback about their learning experiences, well-being, engagement, and school environment. Survey results help schools and the CBE evaluate programs, inform planning, and identify opportunities to better support student success and well-being. 

K-3 CBE Student Survey 

The K-3 CBE Student Survey is an anonymous, voluntary online perception survey with the following components:    

K-3 Student Academic Survey 

  • focuses on student perceptions of their academic learning experiences 

  

K-3 Student Well-Being Survey 

  • focuses on student perceptions in areas of well-being 

  

K-3 survey results are used in school development planning to measure incremental growth and improvement at the school level. 

Important Information About the Survey: 

  • Participation is voluntary. 
  • Individual student responses are anonymous. 
  • Students may skip any question they do not wish to answer. 
  • Students may stop participating at any time without consequence. 
  • Survey results are used for school planning. 
  • Survey results are not used to make decisions about individual students. 
  • School staff supervise survey administration to support student privacy and well-being. 

Consent for Student Participation 

Consent for student participation in CBE surveys was collected through the Annual Authorization Forms in SchoolEngage. 

  • If you selected Yes, your child may participate in applicable surveys. 
  • If you selected No, your child will not participate in applicable surveys. 

  

If you have already completed the Annual Authorization Forms, no further action is required. This is being provided to all families as notification that the survey will be administered between November 17-23, 2026. Please update this information by Monday, November 16, 2026. 

  

Accessing SchoolEngage 

SchoolEngage is available through your MyCBE account and is the same platform used to pay fees, view academic information, book conferences, register to volunteer, and complete annual authorization forms. 

To complete the Annual Authorization Forms: 

  • Sign in to your MyCBE account.
  • Select the SchoolEngage icon.
  • Open the Annual Authorization Forms.

If you have not indicated your preference in SchoolEngage and no response is received by the response deadline, parental consent will be assumed and your child will participate in the survey. It is important to note that regardless of parental consent status, student participation remains voluntary.
