The goal of Read In Week is to encourage a lifelong love of reading and enhance literacy awareness involving students, staff, parents and community members in reading.

This year, we will celebrate Read In Week with the theme "Choose your own adventure."

EIPS is exploring a possible change to the junior high attendance boundaries in Sherwood Park. Specifically, it’s considering moving the feeder school for students living within Lakeland Village, Summerwood and Summerwood North to Clover Bar Junior High for grades 7 to 9. Currently, students are designated to Sherwood Heights Junior High. Changing the boundaries will better maintain school communities and provide programming closer to home.

In June, EIPS contracted Western Management Consultants (WMC) to conduct a public engagement meeting and an online survey with the school communities. The meeting took the form of an in-person, drop-in session. Attendees discussed the possible boundary change, asked questions and provided feedback. WMC also conducted an online survey to collect additional input. WMC then analyzed all the data collected and compiled a What We Heard Report.

Now, EIPS wants to expand the conversation and ensure a long-term solution. As such, WMC is hosting a second public engagement session on October 3. Childcare will be provided. Families, students and community members are invited to attend by dropping in, any time between 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Those who attend will learn more about the What We Heard Report, have an opportunity to add to the report and offer additional feedback. The goal: To determine what’s most important to the school community before any decision is made about junior high boundary changes.

Can’t make the meeting? That’s OK. You can also provide feedback by sending an email to info@wmc.ca. The deadline to submit input is Oct. 10, 2022.

EIPS and WMC encourage everyone to read the What We Heard Report, attend the upcoming public engagement session and share their thoughts. After the session, WMC will record all the feedback provided and prepare a final report for the Division to review.

Helping students to make informed decisions is just one of the many reasons Elk Island Public Schools is excited to once again be partnering with the Educational Liaison Association of Alberta to host the annual Your Future Post-Secondary and Career Fair.

Providing Career Pathway opportunities fosters growth and success for every student by supporting their journey from early learning through high school completion and beyond, and enhances education through communication, engagement and partnerships. Discovering Career Pathways is about building awareness, understanding and readiness that helps students build self-esteem and fulfillment in life.

Time and location details will be provided as soon as they're finalized.

Logos students (77, 87, 97) will be engaged in a fun afternoon with Celebration Church during period 5 and 6.
