General Transportation - Register Now 2024 - 2025 Underway

Registration for the 2024-2025 school year is now open. The deadline to be included in route planning for the fall is June 16, 2024. CBE Transportation continues to accept registration after the deadline; however, students are added to the closest existing stop with available space. Processing times could be up to six weeks at the beginning of the school year due to volume. Families are responsible for transportation until their registration is confirmed.

There is no financial obligation for registration; families have until the fall to cancel without a fee.

If families are moving over the summer and would like their new address considered on the registration form, please fill in a paper form and note on the form that you are moving along with an approximate date. Paper forms are available on Forms You Need.

Tax Receipts Now Available

Tax receipts for lunch supervision fees for January – December 2023 are now available in parents online accounts. If a student has withdrawn from CBE, please direct parent inquiries to studentfees@cbe.ab.ca. Paper receipts will not be mailed out.

Message from the Office

As a school, our job is to ensure that all 370 students are safe. At the end of the school day there is an important way that you can support this work.

At the end of the day, please do not take students out of any line. Teachers place students onto buses. They account for each student. If a student is removed from the line and the teacher was not informed, we then need to call parents and hold buses until we know the student is safe. This then causes our buses to be delayed. It is best if you write a note in the agenda to inform your teacher that you will be picking up your student. You can also call the school prior to 3:20 PM to give this information to the office. The school's phone number is 403-777-6034.

Teachers would love to talk to their families, at the end of the school day when teachers are ensuring student safety by taking students to their buses is not the right time. Students who are being picked up are being supervised by our specialists at the ball wall. All teachers are busy ensuring student safety.

If you would like to talk to your student's teacher, please book an appointment. This could be done by emailing your teacher or writing a note in the agenda.

On Friday's, our school day ends at 1:20 PM. If you are picking up your students, please arrive promptly for 1:20pm.
