As we begin planning for the upcoming school year, we kindly ask you complete our Enrolment Intentions Form in SchoolEngage. This form lets us know whether your child will be:
§ Returning to Riverside
§ Attending another school within the Calgary Board of Education
§ Attending a school outside of the Calgary Board of Education
If your child is moving onto a grade our school does not offer, the form will ask you if you are planning on attending your designated school for next year. We will inform your designated school of your intentions.
Having accurate enrolment information helps us plan staffing, classroom organization, and resources to best support our students. We recognize plans may not be finalized for the 2026-27 school year. Regardless, we ask you to complete the form based on current information and intentions. Completion of the form is not considered a firm commitment.
The Enrollment Intentions form is completed in SchoolEngage. SchoolEngage is one of the applications found in your MyCBE account. This is the same account you use to pay fees, view academic information, book school conferences, etc.
Spring uniform purchasing window
McCarthy Uniforms recently shared a reminder that the uniform purchasing window for the spring will open on April 15th and will end on May 31st. This will be the final opportunity to purchase uniform items for the 25-26 school year.
Parking restrictions on 6 Street
The City of Calgary sent a notification to the school this morning indicating that, due to the ongoing utility construction work near our school, they will be restricting parking on 6 Street between 1 Avenue and Marsh Road. Thus, they will not permit parking in that area for about 8 weeks, effective April 20.
School Council and Parent Society updates
Our May School Council and Parent Society meeting will take place at 7:00PM on May 21 in our Learning Commons. This will also be the final meetings for the current school year for each of these groups. Elections for executive positions will take place at this meeting. Please ‘stay tuned’ for further information about this.
Attending School Council and Parent Society meetings is a great way to get involved in our school community, have a say in our programming, and partner with staff to make our school even greater than it already is! Joining these meetings does not obligate you to volunteer or take on additional work. If you’ve never joined us, please feel very welcome to join.
Thank you for your continued support,
Steve Radder, Principal
Riverside School
